Zora Books Her Happy Ever After

This rom-com is centered around Zora, a Black and filipina bookstore owner in Washington, D.C. Zora is fully focused on nurturing her bookstore instead of search for love and starting a family like her grandmother wants her to. To her surprise two men walk into her life and change her outlook on love. Lawrence Michaels is her favorite author who she has put on a pedestal due to her love of his books. Reid Hughes is his best friend who does not give Zora a good first impression at Lawrence's book event at Zora's store. i don't want to give any spoilers but I had a side-eye for Lawrence since the beginning of the book and I actually suspected the conclusion that Zora comes to about the best friends relationship.

This story gave drama and spice. Some of the spicy scenes are great and others are cringe and embarrassing. The differences between those scenes really showed who out of the two men in the love triangle was a better person. Some of the side characters are fully fleshed out like her best friend and her grandmother who were the best hype women and overall supportive of Zora throughout the book. There are a few twists and turns but we get a great HEA.

Thank you to Hear Our Voices Tours and HTP Books for an ARC copy of this book for my honest review.
