Release Date: January 25
Dalton “Tripp” Sutherland fully realizes just how badly he screwed up ten years ago, resulting in the loss of the best friend he ever had – the incomparable Zara Wellington. From the outside looking in, it may appear that he’s living his best life, spending his days sailing and being the resort playboy, but deep down he’s still haunted by the unforgivable words he uttered that night in high school. If only he had a chance to prove to her that he didn’t mean what he’d said.
Life for Zara Wellington is pretty amazing. As creator and lady-boss behind the top beauty blog on the internet, she gets to travel the world trying out new spas and is even on the verge of having her journalistic dreams come true. Even though she still carries around her life-long insecurities about her weight, it’s rare that she ever thinks about that night she overheard the unimaginable come from the only person she thought ever really cared for her – her best friend Tripp.
But when Zara shows up at the Indigo Royal Resort to review the brand new Cherish Spa, the two come face to face for the first time in ten years. Can they manage to get past everything from that night all those years ago and the painful feelings that still linger, or is the damage done forever?

MY REVIEW
The very last person Zara expected to see at the resort and spa she's been invited to review is her former best friend, Tripp. She has moved on from the pain he caused her with some carelessly uttered words, and has become a famous beauty blogger. Though she's never quite gotten past her insecurities, she has a great life and she wants to make it even better. Being back in Tripp's orbit won't help her achieve that, so she's determined to be cooly indifferent to him. Will she be able to do that even as her body (and heart) want her to give him a chance at redemption?
Never has Tripp forgotten the pain he caused his once best friend. And never has he wanted more to make it up to her and prove that he's no longer the immature ass he'd been back then. But he isn't sure Zara will ever forgive him, much less agree to even be friends (or more). Can he carve out this chance fate has dropped in his lap?
What I Like About You is a bit painful reading, only because there was so much hurt there between the two. And they obviously hadn't moved past that pain even near the end, when they both hurled cruel words at each other. Second chances can be iffy, but when they're written with a deft hand like this one, they're really fantastic. I am so glad these two got the happiness they each deserved, in a heartwarming, emotional fashion.
