About this ebook
“A flirty, sexy read...Fresh and fun as hell—Katelyn Doyle is absolutely an author to watch.” —People Magazine
For fans of Emily Henry, a debut about a rom-com screenwriter who doesn't believe in love and a divorce attorney who does, forced together at their high school reunion fifteen years after their breakup
Molly Marks writes Hollywood rom-coms for a living—which is how she knows “romance” is a racket. The one and only time she was naive enough to fall in love was with her high school boyfriend, Seth—who she ghosted on the eve of graduation and hasn’t seen in fifteen years.
Seth Rubinstein believes in love, the grand, fated kind, despite his job as, well...one of Chicago’s most successful divorce attorneys. Over the last decade, he’s sought “the one” in countless bad dates and rushed relationships. He knows his soulmate is out there. But so far, no one can compare to Molly Marks, the first girl who broke his heart.
When Molly’s friends drag her to Florida for their fifteenth high school reunion, it is poetic justice that she’s forced to sit with Seth. Too many martinis and a drunken hookup later, they decide to make a bet: whoever can predict the fate of five couples before the next reunion must declare that the other is right about true love. The catch? The fifth couple is the two of them.
Molly assures Seth they are a tale of timeless heartbreak. Seth promises she’ll end up hopelessly in love with him. She thinks he’s delusional. He has five years to prove her wrong.
Wickedly funny, sexy, and brimming with laughs and heart like the best romantic comedies, Just Some Stupid Love Story is for everyone who believes in soulmates—even if they would never admit it.

A very enjoyable and cute book of opposites attracting, very different opposites. John is very much into birding (bird watching) and his friend Chris sets him up with a partner for a serious birding competition. Celeste thinks Chris wants her to be John’s romantic partner. He loves her exuberance and she loves his quiet manner. Their relationship grows but as fake lovers because she is not ready for anything after her divorce and is looking to find herself. John had a bad breakup and he is fine with the no relationship. But, chemistry is huge with them and benefits start to happen even with a set timeline. Will they be able to overcome their insecurities or will the timeline hold? I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

What a brilliant debut! This is one of the best books I’ve read all year. I laughed until I couldn’t breathe. Molly and Seth are wonderful—so different and yet perfect together. Molly is smart and sharp, while Seth is a darling cinnamon roll. The novel is fun and heartbreaking and incredibly satisfying. Thanks, NetGalley, for the ARC I received. This is my honest and voluntary review.
