Story
Single mom Jess Davis is a data and statistics wizard, but no amount of number crunching can convince her to step back into the dating world. After all, her father was never around, her hard-partying mother disappeared when she was six, and her ex decided he wasn’t “father material” before her daughter was even born. Jess holds her loved ones close but working constantly to stay afloat is hard...and lonely. But then Jess hears about GeneticAlly, a buzzy new DNA-based matchmaking company that’s predicted to change dating forever.

Olive Torres is used to being the unlucky twin: from inexplicable mishaps to a recent layoff, her life seems to be almost comically jinxed. By contrast, her sister Ami is an eternal champion...she even managed to finance her entire wedding by winning a slew of contests. Unfortunately for Olive, the only thing worse than constant bad luck is having to spend the wedding day with the best man (and her nemesis), Ethan Thomas.

Story
Naomi wasn’t just running away from her wedding. She was riding to the rescue of her twin. Too bad for Naomi, her evil twin hasn’t changed at all. After helping herself to Naomi’s car and cash, Tina leaves her with a niece she didn’t know she had. Now, she’s stuck in town with no car, no job, no home - and an 11-year-old to take care of. Since Naomi’s life imploded right in front of him, the least Knox can do is help her out. And just as soon as she's out of trouble, he can get back to his peaceful, solitary life. That’s the plan, until the trouble turns to real danger.

Story
Growing up the daughter of notorious treasure hunter and absentee father Duke Wilder left Lily without much patience for the profession…or much money in the bank. But Lily is resourceful, and now uses Duke’s coveted hand-drawn maps to guide tourists on fake treasure hunts through the red rock canyons of Utah. It pays the bills but doesn’t leave enough to fulfill her dream of buying back the beloved ranch her father sold years ago, and definitely not enough to deal with the sight of the man she once loved walking back into her life with a motley crew of friends ready to hit the trails.

Nora Stephens' life is books—she’s read them all—and she is not that type of heroine. Not the plucky one, not the laidback dream girl, and especially not the sweetheart. In fact, the only people Nora is a heroine for are her clients, for whom she lands enormous deals as a cutthroat literary agent, and her beloved little sister Libby. Which is why she agrees to go to Sunshine Falls, North Carolina, for the month of August when Libby begs her for a sisters’ trip away.

She's also keeping a big secret: facing a medically necessary procedure that will make it impossible for her to have children. Planning her best friend's wedding is bittersweet for Kristen - especially when she meets the best man, Josh Copeland. He's funny, sexy, never offended by her mile-wide streak of sarcasm, and always one chicken enchilada ahead of her hangry. Even her dog, Stuntman Mike, adores him. The only catch: Josh wants a big family.

Publisher's Summary
The heart may hide, but it never forgets. The first women’s fiction novel from New York Times and number one international best-selling author Christina Lauren (Autoboyography, Dating You/Hating You).
Macy Sorensen is settling into an ambitious if emotionally tepid routine: work hard as a new pediatrics resident, plan her wedding to an older, financially secure man, keep her head down and heart tucked away.
But when she runs into Elliot Petropoulos - the first and only love of her life - the careful bubble she’s constructed begins to dissolve. Once upon a time, Elliot was Macy’s entire world - growing from her gangly teen friend into the man who coaxed her heart open again after the loss of her mother...only to break it on the very night he declared his love for her.
Told in alternating timelines between then and now, teenage Elliot and Macy grow from friends to much more - spending weekends and lazy summers together in a house outside of San Francisco reading books, sharing favorite words, and talking through their growing pains and triumphs. As adults, they have become strangers to one another until their chance reunion. Although their memories are obscured by the agony of what happened that night so many years ago, Elliot will come to understand the truth behind Macy’s decade-long silence and will have to overcome the past and himself to revive her faith in the possibility of an all-consuming love.

One of my fave Christina Lauren Books ❤️
It’s a sweet coming of age love story…reading it reminds of the thrills and uncertainties and heartbreak that come with first loves - the narrator is good with the conversation pieces but when she is describing a scenario, her cadence is unique - doesn’t take away from the story but sometimes is distracting

Couldn’t stop listening!
This was a beautiful love story that had me hooked right away.
My only reason for a four star was because of the narrators voice she used when talking as one of the boys/men in the story. I found it irritating, but otherwise loved this book.

"YOU" - my heart melted
4.5 stars.
Oh my gosh... the emotions. I have been having a lot of stress lately and other stuff going on so im already pretty emotional and sensitive. This book thru a big a$% stick of feelings in the mix as well. So now im all over the place. This was an audiobook for me. It was very well read except that the reader would get "throaty" on some words and it was a tad annoying but not enough for me to stop reading.
The story of a young love and its progression thru the current day. The then and now aspect flowed nicely. It kept going to this big mistake. I really wanted to know what was going on. I wanted to know what could be so bad that they didn't talk for 11 years. Well i won't say any of the ending so i will leave it at that.
I would not call this a women's fiction, this is a flat out romance and it was really good. Toward the end one single tear came out (i'm not in a good emotional spot lately...)and forced the rest to stay in because i dont think i would have stopped crying.

sweet young love
This story was really well written, and both story/time lines were very easy to distinguish. It reminded me so much of my own first love that I found myself in these characters which is a lovely thing to have in a book. Sad, happy, endearing, angering, and all other like emotions when involving romance were drawn from me and I was so eager to pick up and keep going with this book. Definitely recommend:)

Lovely heartbreaking story from one of my fav writing duo. Loved the audiobook although at first I thought the narrator spoke too slow, I got used to it and fell right into Macy. One of my favourite listens.
