A podcast producer agrees to host a new series about modern dating—but will the show jeopardize her chance at finding real love? Cecily loves making podcasts and she fiercely protects those she's close to, coworkers, friends and family.  After a disastrous breakup with a former colleague, she is left with a broken heart and broken dreams after he steals her ideas and the show she's worked so hard on.  Her boss, (a complete jerk, lol) then pressures her into a new podcast where she reluctantly agrees to a dating coach who sets her up on 20 blind dates in order to find true love.  Once she agrees, she has a chance encounter with a a big, loveable dog and the man who is chasing him down the street.  From here she keeps running into Will and things get really complicated from there.  

I have loved Holmes previous two books, Evvie Drake Starts Over and Flying Solo, and was beyond thrilled to receive this advanced copy from @netgalley and @randomhouse.  This one was no exception, and Linda Holmes is now solidly in the "auto by author" category for me!  She writes such fun and interesting characters, and I am always drawn right into their stories.  These are always people I always root for, and I was definitely rooting for Cecily and Will the whole way through.  Also a pretty entertaining look at the current state of dating, online influencers and a bit of behind the scenes look at the behind the scenes of podcasting.
