ENCHANTED
Nearly two decades ago, 18-year-old Noah Sinclair was put in charge of his younger siblings by his mother's dying wish. Now his siblings are all adults, forging their own lives and finding love, and Noah’s brother Owen is determined to stage an intervention to get Noah to take some time off. To do so, he’s enlisted the help of family friend Andie Lawrence. It’s Andie’s job to spend two weeks in Cancun writing a travel story for her blog while also covertly coaxing Noah to stop checking his email and enjoy the vacation his siblings bought him for Christmas. Complications arise as Andie realizes her childhood crush on Noah isn’t exactly gone and Noah still can’t seem to remember her name. Though this is certainly a romance, with Andie playing the role of the off-limits best friend of Noah’s little brother, the writing about Cancun is intense in its aspirational, lifestyles-of-the-rich-and-famous level of detail. There are private jets, picturesque resorts, and bejeweled bracelets. It’s a fantasy that Andie and Noah give in to at the slightest nudge, quickly embarking on a vacation fling, but the reality is that both are masking grief: Noah with his demanding work schedule and Andie with her carefree, untouchable attitude. The conflict is nonexistent since the will-they-won’t-they hand-wringing never feels serious enough to keep Noah and Andie truly apart. It’s a surefire happy ending without any major stakes. The large Sinclair family is consistently involved in setting the main characters up; this will delight fans of Scott's Accidental Billionaires series, though it may feel overwhelming to new readers.
Thanks for reading.
