The chemistry between Sophie and Max had me smiling from start to finish. Their dynamic was playful and charming, but there were also genuine emotional beats that made me care about them beyond just the laughs. Painter does such a great job of capturing that mix of chaos and sweetness that makes romcoms so addictive.

Quotes
Fuck me, I'd fallen so hard that I wasn't even trying to get up.
Her smile was like a power switch that controlled the brightness of my universe all of a sudden, and it was exhilarating and terrifying , all at the same time.
She was so pretty that it kind of took my breath away, and I was glad I was wearing sunglasses so she couldn't see how much time I spent looking at her.
Because her pretty had layers.
Her red lips, brown eyes, long lashes – she was gorgeous. But her beauty was amplified by how smart and how fucking funny she could be. She was fascinating to be around, as in all I wanted to do was listen to her and learn all the weirdly wonderful ways her mind worked.
God, I was in deep.
