Praise for Talia Hibbert

“Talia Hibbert is a rock star! Her writing is smart, funny, and sexy, but most importantly, she’ll make you fall in love with her sweetly imperfect characters, who are so real you’ll wish you could give them all a hug.”

—Meg Cabot, #1 New York Times bestselling author

“Poised to be a hit.”

—Refinery29

“A fizzy, intoxicating sense of humor that bubbles off the page.”

—Entertainment Weekly

“A brilliant writer.”

—New York Times Book Review

“Hibbert is a major talent.”

—Kirkus Reviews

“Hibbert joins important voices in contemporary romance who write steamy page-turners where the characters look nothing like they did a generation ago—and that’s a wonderful thing.”

—Washington Post

“We are in for a real treat . . . you’ll get lost in the hilarious yarn . . .”

—Essence
