What happens when a romance comes with a built-in question mark?

In *Problematic Summer Romance*, Ali Hazelwood gives us a 23-year-old woman, a 38-year-old man, a brother’s best friend, a destination wedding in Sicily, and enough yearning to keep the Ionian coast warm. I went into this one ready for a fun summer escape, and I got exactly that, along with a few thoughts about age gaps, identity, and the stories we tell ourselves about who we’re allowed to become.

Plus: smart-silly banter, adorable animal friends, and a third-act breakup that isn’t actually a third-act breakup. Brilliant.
