After living through a dumpster fire of a Valentines Day, Emilie Hornby escapes to her grandmothers house for some comfort and a consolation pint of Ben & Jerrys. She passes out on the couch, but when she wakes up, shes back home in her own bed--and its Valentines Day all over again. And the next day? Another horrendous V-Day. Emilie is stuck in some sort of time loop nightmare that she cant wake up from as she re-watches her boyfriend, Josh, cheat on her day after day. In addition to Joshs recurring infidelity, Emilie cant get away from the enigmatic Nick, who she keeps running into--sometimes literally--in unfortunate ways.

She perfectly balances witty banter with heart-melting moments. A time loop trope is often difficult to navigate in YA because the characters are largely relied on to drive the plot; Painter executes this flawlessly as she creates characters that are well developed and relatable. With many Taylor Swift references and a not-so-subtle nod to Gilmore Girls, this story will appeal to romance readers of all ages."--School Library Journal"Painter plucks readers every heartstring, from writing a sweet love story between two teens with very different views on romance to honestly depicting how Emilies parents messy divorce has impacted her feelings of self-worth. Italicized confessions at the beginnings of various chapters prove there is a playful side to Emilie that is further brought out by Nick, whose constant teasing leads to flirty banter...unequivocally hilarious and delightful."--Kirkus Reviews"Throughout, Emilie struggles to navigate her parents acrimonious divorce, and the resulting financial precarity and blow to her self-worth. By combining these personal trials with a lighthearted love story, Painter delivers a thoughtfully elevated romantic jaunt."--Publishers Weekly Review Quote "Throughout, Emilie struggles to navigate her parents acrimonious divorce, and the resulting financial precarity and blow to her self-worth.
