Unexpected by Laylah Abrams – Review by Maisie Dickinson

Unexpected by Laylah Abrams
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Laylah Abrams’ Unexpected follows famous Clair Morgan, who falls in love with waiter/artist Nick Holden. Despite their completely different backgrounds, they have more in common than either of them would have thought, and they’re the only people who see each other for who they truly are. They’re also both insecure for wildly different reasons, and keeping their relationship a secret doesn’t help with that. My favourite character was Clair, because despite being rich, she’s really relatable. She works hard but is never taken seriously, and she’s scared to let her guard down. I recommend this book because it’s a beautiful romance between two unlikely love interests, but you can really see why they love each other despite their differences. I cried at the ending; happy tears. ‘In a world full of tabloids and masks, they had found something pure and gleaming and were going to bury it again.’
