She’s ready for a vacation at her happy place-the Maine cottage she and her friends visit every summer. So they keep it a secret from their friends and families-in fact, Harriet barely even admits it to herself, focusing instead on her grueling hours as a surgical resident.
They’ve been part of the same boisterous friend group since college, and they know that their breakup will devastate the others and make things more than a little awkward. Wyn Connor and Harriet Kilpatrick were the perfect couple-until Wyn dumped Harriet for reasons she still doesn’t fully understand.
While a happily-ever-after doesn’t stop when a couple realizes their feelings for one another, this book feels more like an excuse to put the pair into a variety of loosely connected one-off situations than a fully fledged novel.Įxes pretend they’re still together for the sake of their friends on their annual summer vacation. While revisiting much-loved characters can leave fans feeling warm and fuzzy, this material would have been better off as a series of bonus stories rather than a full-length continuation of Luc and Oliver’s relationship. It never feels like the couple is in any real danger of splitting up, though, which raises the question of why they needed a sequel at all. Luc and his issues take more of the focus, as he hems and haws over proposing to Oliver-especially after a terrible ex-boyfriend announces his own engagement. From running into old exes to dealing with their sneaky feelings of grief, Luc and Oliver will have their work cut out for them if they're going to make it through with their relationship intact. Now, with several wedding celebrations on their social calendar and an unexpected funeral to contend with, the couple is put into a pressure cooker of stressful situations. There's still an opposites-attract push and pull between them, but they've found a way to balance each other out.
Two years after the events of that book, reformed bad boy Luc O’Donnell and Oliver Blackwood, his buttoned-up barrister boyfriend, have settled into something resembling domestic bliss. A London couple navigates the highs and lows of weddings and even a funeral in this sequel to Boyfriend Material (2020).
