At the end of last summer, Quinn confessed her crush on him in the form of a rambling email\u2014and then he left for college without a response.<\/p>\n<p>Quinn has been dreading seeing him again almost as much as she dreads another summer playing the harp for her parents\u2019 weddings. When he shows up at the first wedding of the summer, looking cuter than ever after a year apart, they clash immediately. Tarek\u2019s always loved the grand gestures in weddings\u2014the flashier, the better\u2014while Quinn can\u2019t see them as anything but fake. Even as they can\u2019t seem to have one civil conversation, Quinn\u2019s thrown together with Tarek wedding after wedding, from performing a daring cake rescue to filling in for a missing bridesmaid and groomsman.<\/p>\n<p>Quinn can\u2019t deny her feelings for him are still there, especially after she learns the truth about his silence, opens up about her own fears, and begins learning the art of harp-making from an enigmatic teacher.<br \/>\nMaybe love isn\u2019t the enemy after all\u2014and maybe allowing herself to fall is the most honest thing Quinn\u2019s ever done.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote><center><span class=\"ubb-buy\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/1534440275\/\" target=\"_blank\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\"

And it&#8217;s a perfect representation of the book inside, filled with honest conversations about mental health, hilarious characters, and a delightful friends-to-lovers, opposites-attract romance.<\/p>\n<p>Quinn and Tarek were friends as children because of their parents&#8217; businesses &#8211; Quinn&#8217;s family runs a wedding planning business while Tarek&#8217;s does catering. While they spent a lot of time together, they never hung out outside of those events, but Quinn still managed to develop a crush on Tarek, which culminates the summer before he goes off to college. After watching his &#8220;grand gestures&#8221; with his various past girlfriends, she finally confesses that she has a crush for him in an email&#8230;. and then he completely ghosts her. With him back for the summer and working many of the same events, it&#8217;s awkward, especially since Quinn thought she was finally over the crush (spoiler: she&#8217;s not). But in trying to resurrect their friendship, they end up opening up to each other, and maybe.. jut maybe, that unrequited crush isn&#8217;t so unrequited after all.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cI did like kissing him. But I\u2019ve seen so many miserable brides, miserable grooms, miserable families putting on a show because they think they\u2019re supposed to. I\u2019ve seen the expressions my parents wear with their clients. None of it is real, and I already do enough pretending.<br \/>\nI learned from my parents like I learned how to bustle a wedding dress: love is a performance.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The book is told solely from Quinn&#8217;s first person POV, and she was a character you could really root for. The thought of a teenage wedding harpist was, honestly, one of the things that really interested me in this book, and I was glad to see how much it played a part in her arc. With high school over, she&#8217;s looking forward to her first year of college&#8230; or at least she would be if her parents hadn&#8217;t hand-picked all of her courses in order to make her a better employee for the family business. Problem is, Quinn doesn&#8217;t want to join the family business. After watching her parents separate temporarily as a child (and then never talking about it again) she has a dim view of romance, especially her own chances for it. But her family&#8217;s life is tied so inextricably to the business &#8211; their &#8220;family brunches&#8221; are actually used to update everyone on work hurdles &#8211; that she doesn&#8217;t know how to fit into the family without being a part of the business, and it&#8217;s not really like she knows what she wants to do with her life anyway. So rather than spending her last summer before college hanging out with her friends, she&#8217;s unenthusiastically playing the harp or trying to live up to her parents&#8217; high expectations at various cake tastings, bridal fittings, and weddings. But a chance encounter at a wedding opens a new door to her, something she&#8217;s actually passionate about, and telling her family she doesn&#8217;t want to work with them becomes more pressing.<\/p>\n<p>Tarek&#8217;s the complete opposite of Quinn in many ways. He loves working with his family, especially doing the desserts, and his main concern is convincing them that he could handle more. His love of baking really shown through in the book and I loved his passion. Tarek&#8217;s parents got together due to a grand gesture, and for Tarek, love is supposed to be big and splashy. But he&#8217;s a great friend (he saves Quinn desserts! <em>*swoon*<\/em>), and he&#8217;s very invested into rescuing the friendship between him and Quinn. Unlike previously, though, their friendship goes deeper, and they start talking about their hopes and aspirations (or lack of them), and their new closeness leads to a romantic relationship.\u00a0They have differing ideas about how romance &#8220;works&#8221; and, unlike other books, the hurdles they had to overcome felt evenly balanced.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cWe\u2019re <em>all<\/em> hurting, Quinn. In different ways, some that we can treat with medication and therapy and some only with time. And some in ways that might never heal. Sometimes the good outweighs the bad. Sometimes those great times are so fucking great that they make the bad times a little easier to handle.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>There&#8217;s quite a bit of rep in this book. From a mental health standpoint, Quinn has\u00a0anxiety and OCD, which she treats with a combination of therapy and medication, and she talks about it a lot in the book.\u00a0I thought her description of OCD was excellent and really helped me understand the thought process behind it.\u00a0Tarek also had some mental health struggles, though they&#8217;re a bit spoilery, so all I&#8217;ll say is that I felt like it was handled well. Their discussions about their mental health are so honest and accepting and yes, please, more of this in YA, thanks. Quinn&#8217;s also Jewish, though her family isn&#8217;t particularly observant, but it&#8217;s something that&#8217;s woven into her family life, as is the fact that Tarek&#8217;s Muslim. Neither of their religions is a pain point, it&#8217;s just part of their identities, and I loved that.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, I very much enjoyed how sweet and fun this book was, along with the stellar mental health rep. I&#8217;ll definitely be picking up this author&#8217;s backlist!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Content warnings: This cover, y&#8217;all, I cannot deal with the cuteness.
