From two USA Today bestselling authors comes a tale of miscommunication and muffins.

Romy Love knows weddings. As the author of a hugely successful wedding blog, you’d think she’d have love covered. It is her last name, after all.
When it comes to her big day, Romy has the flowers picked out, a dress collecting dust in the back of her closet, and a preacher on standby. There’s just one problem: the groom doesn’t know it yet.

Romy has eyes for the Italian coffee god and single dad who owns the bakery in her building—she also has plans for his delicious buns—but in order to get her happily-ever-after, she has a few things to check off her list first:

Lose twenty pounds

Take over the blogging world one wedding at a time

Make Coffee Hottie fall in love with me

Yeah, this shouldn’t be difficult at all.

Genre: Contemporary Romance + Humor
Actual Rating: 3.5 - 4 stars

Bittersweet is a satisfying and cute novel that is easy to read in one sitting. I loved the characters, although their miscommunication was a bit exasperating, and fell head over heels for the hero who is a single dad AND baker. In addition to this, I liked how there were many laugh out loud moments (mostly due to Elio's daughter) and the pure feeling that this novel had. It wasn't a quick and dirty book with too much sex and little of anything else. Rather, the sex was limited to the end and readers mostly caught glimpses of their budding relationship. Sure, there was some drama (as I mentioned the miscommunication above) but that's what made the story what it is. So I enjoyed it. 

I'll keep this review short and sweet because I don't have too much to say about it other than it's an enjoyable novel. I hope readers will give it a chance especially if they are looking for a romance on the lighter side.
