Space is the last thing an event planner and an astronaut need in this charming new romantic comedy from New York Times bestselling author Samantha Young.
When event planner Hallie Goodman receives party-inspiration material from the bride of her latest wedding project, the last thing she expects to find in the files are digital videos from Darcy’s ex-boyfriend. Hallie knows it’s wrong to keep watching these personal videos, but this guy is cute, funny, and an astronaut on the International Space Station to boot. She’s only human. And it’s not long until she starts sending e-mails and video diaries to his discontinued NASA address. Since they’re bouncing back, there’s no way anyone will ever be able to see them...right?
Christopher Ortiz is readjusting to life on earth and being constantly in the shadow of his deceased older brother. When a friend from NASA’s IT department forwards him the e-mails and video messages Hallie has sent, he can’t help but notice how much her sense of humor and pink hair make his heart race.
Separated by screens, Hallie and Chris are falling in love with each other, one transmission at a time. But can they make their star-crossed romance work when they each learn the other’s baggage?

Even though it took me awhile to get into this book–once I did I was really quite hooked. Samantha Young has really proved herself to be one of my most go-to authors. She’s exquisite at giving just the right amount of romance, humor, and character growth.

In this story, Hallie is an event planner who accidentally receives videos that weren’t meant for her. They were meant for the bride of a wedding she’s planning. And they were from the bride’s ex.

Needless to say, Hallie can’t help herself but watch them… And then respond.

With both of them not having fantastic families to speak of, these two really needed each other. And I loved reading and seeing the progression of their relationship.

This one may even be a re-read for me.
