Here's what readers have to say about this book....
This was a wonderful book! The story was very sweet and I loved the cute romance between the main couple. I highly recommend this book.
This book offers a breezy, heartwarming escape, filled with witty banter, endearing mishaps, and just enough chemistry to keep the pages turning. The love interest is suitably charming, with enough depth to make their dynamic engaging, even if some of their conflicts feel a bit predictable. While the book excels in humor and sweet moments, the protagonist’s personal growth occasionally takes a backseat to the romantic plot. A deeper exploration of their emotional journey could have added more weight to their happily-ever-after. That said, the supporting cast adds plenty of fun, and the romantic tension is well-paced, making it easy to root for the central couple. The writing is light and engaging, perfect for readers looking for a feel-good story with a few laughs along the way. If you don’t mind a little predictability and enjoy banter-filled romance, this book is a charming pick—just don’t expect too much introspection between the meet-cutes and grand gestures.
The Trouble with Love is a witty, warm-hearted, and emotionally engaging novel that captures the chaos and charm of navigating love, life, and self-discovery. Dun's writing is fresh and lively, with sharp dialogue and relatable characters. While the plot leans on familiar romantic comedy tropes, Dun's clever storytelling and emotional insight elevate it, making it more than just another love story.
