The Friends-to-Lovers Project: A Spicy Opposites Attract Rom Com Set in Venice | Paula Ottoni | Paperback
If any place can turn two best friends into lovers, it’s Venice.
Well, only if you don’t have a dreamy tour guide like Lorenzo…
For LA chef Daisy Hogan, this trip to Venice is the start of her new life—inspiration for her California restaurant, saying yes to stability and basically fulfilling all her dad’s dreams. But then the trip goes sideways, and she’s left in the most romantic city in the world with her best friend, Jeremy. He’s stable, reliable. If she wants to salvage the future she planned, maybe she should fall for her friend?
So they agree to a friends-to-lovers project. What could go wrong?
Enter Lorenzo Fontana, hotel concierge by day, violinist in his dreams. He gave up music for a practical life in the city he loves, and to keep his job, he’s vowed to be Daisy and Jeremy’s personal guide to romance. Only he’s not supposed to be feeling this personal about their project…
With racing hearts, longing glances and gondola rides, Daisy begins questioning the project, her plans and even her future. Is it possible to live a life where the dreams she’s fulfilling are her own?

I hate Ophelia because Blackwell should be with me 🥲

10/10 recommend!! Smut syndicate puts so much thought and love into their blind dates. So much that they reach out and look at your fable or good reads and really try to perfect your date. I look forward to this every single month

Read this in a day! Could not recommend enough. My favorite is there are sprinkles of little mermaid throughout, but other than that this is a story you would NEVER expect

Perfect for bringing my book to the beach!!!

I sent a blind date with a book to a friend and she loved it! Ordering was super easy and shipped so so fast. Highly recommend 💜

My blind date with a book was everything I hoped for and more! Unwrapping it felt like opening a gift from a friend who really gets me. The book I received was in my TBR for months! The story made me laugh, cry, and stay up way too late, but I have zero regrets. It’s the kind of date you want to tell everyone about—and I already can’t wait for the next one!

Aghhhhhhhhhh! It was so cuteeeeeeeeeee! Will be ordering again!
