The main takeaways for me were that words can be powerful, first impressions aren’t always correct, and everyone deserves a second chance. It’s ideally suited to lovers of the contemporary romance and women’s fiction genres, and if you enjoyed Beach Read by Emily Henry, The Unhoneymooners by Christina Lauren, Shipped by Angie Hockman, or How Sweet It Is by Dylan Newton, then No Words would be a perfect read for you! It deals with themes such as appearance versus reality, love and family, escapism, communication (or lack thereof), harassment, and vulnerability. This book is a slowburn enemies-to-lovers romantic comedy with some dramatic elements. No Words is the third book in Meg Cabot’s Little Bridge Island series, but you do not need to read the other books in the series before you read No Words. Just as things are starting to look up for Jo, one of the authors at the convention stirs up drama. Spending time with Will turns out to be not so bad in fact, the handsome Will Price seems genuinely sorry for his past actions and is providing ample inspiration for the next instalment of Jo’s book series, which is past its deadline. But as soon as she arrives in Little Bridge Island, everywhere she turns Jo runs right into Will, who turns out to be the main benefactor of the event.

When children’s author Jo Wright receives a generous offer to speak at a book festival in the Florida Keys (all-expenses-paid), she accepts because she desperately needs the money and she is assured that Will Price, her nemesis and the bestselling author who badmouthed her work, will not be in attendance. “Don’t you ever say things that you don’t mean? Or wished that you’d said, but couldn’t find the right words – or any words at all?”
