It’s disastrous because he doesn’t actually want to get married he loves Cee, his girlfriend of two-years, but isn’t IN love with her, and her proposal – in front of the assembled friends, family and other guests – is kind of a wake-up call for him, alerting him to the fact that they’re so far from being on the same page as to be in completely different libraries! Gray can’t possibly go back into the restaurant to face everyone after his public refusal, so instead he escapes by crawling through the bathroom window – and immediately bumps into Kai, who was on his way inside. The book opens on the evening of Gray’s disastrous engagement dinner.
Kai is more of a free-spirit he’s funny and upbeat and sweet, and after years spent travelling, has returned to Boston thinking maybe it’s time he set down some roots, and plans to set up in business as a bespoke furniture-maker. Gray is somewhat rigid and set in his ways he’s a meticulous planner and workaholic who has very little else in his life because that’s what’s always been expected of him and he doesn’t know any other way to be. The Happy List is a wonderful friends-to-lovers/opposites-attract romance featuring life-long best friends, Gray and Kai who couldn’t be more different.
I’ve been meaning to read this one for ages and am really pleased I finally got around to it.
