An ingeniously witty novel about the risks—and rewards—of opening your life to new people by Amazon Charts bestselling author Camille Pagán.
No new people: that’s Annie Mercer’s vow. It’s bad enough that her boss sabotaged her chemistry career and her best friend tried to cure her with crystals. But after her fiancé, Jon, asks for space while he’s gallivanting around Paris, Annie decides she needs space too—from everyone.
Yet when Harper moves in next door, Annie can’t help but train a watchful eye on the glamorous but fragile young woman. And if keeping Harper safe requires teaming up with Mo, a maddeningly optimistic amateur detective, who is she to mind her own business?
Soon Annie has let not one but two new people into her life. Then Jon reappears—and he wants her to join him in France. She’s pretty sure letting anyone get close won’t end well. So she must decide: Is another shot at happiness worth the risk?
(I love to note the first lines of the books I'm reading. First lines can really grab a reader's attention and I love seeing where the author takes the reader after their first line.)
First line—"Dear Jon. Hello seems like such an innocuous word, but it's really a portal to loss."
Nothing in Annie's life is going well—her job tanked, her best friend had flaked, and now her fiancé left the country. That's it! She's swearing off new people and is just going to focus on getting her life back on track. She doesn't have time to invest in getting to know someone new.
But maybe that's not what life has in store for her. Maybe she is going to have to open her mind and her heart to the possibilities.
This Won't End Well is an interesting, fun look at relationships, friends, love, and sticking up for what's right. I loved every word and loved watching Annie figure out what's important in her life. Camille has written another wonderful novel that is sure to be a bestseller! Check it out!
I received an ARC of This Won't End Well from the publisher via NetGalley and this is my honest opinion of the book.

When I'm not at my computer, you'll find me with my nose in a book, running after my two kids, or planning my next trip (most likely to Puerto Rico, where my husband was born and raised). Visit me at www.camillepagan.com.
