Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take
Love at First Sight
Merry Goodman · 2020
66/100
👎 Skip It
Five short, chance-encounter romances billed as clean and inspirational — good for a quick read, and it clearly found an audience since it spun into a bigger series. Each story is necessarily light on depth given the short format, and I couldn't verify quality beyond the marketing description. Fine for a casual read, not a standout.
