Goodreads Summary:

A fresh, irresistible rom-com from debut author Emma Lord about the chances we take, the paths life can lead us on, and how love can be found in the opposite place you expected.

Meet Pepper, swim team captain, chronic overachiever, and all-around perfectionist. Her family may be falling apart, but their massive fast-food chain is booming ― mainly thanks to Pepper, who is barely managing to juggle real life while secretly running Big League Burger’s massive Twitter account.

Enter Jack, class clown and constant thorn in Pepper’s side. When he isn’t trying to duck out of his obscenely popular twin’s shadow, he’s busy working in his family’s deli. His relationship with the business that holds his future might be love/hate, but when Big League Burger steals his grandma’s iconic grilled cheese recipe, he’ll do whatever it takes to take them down, one tweet at a time.

All’s fair in love and cheese ― that is, until Pepper and Jack’s spat turns into a viral Twitter war. Little do they know, while they’re publicly duking it out with snarky memes and retweet battles, they’re also falling for each other in real life ― on an anonymous chat app Jack built.

As their relationship deepens and their online shenanigans escalate ― people on the internet are shipping them?? ― their battle gets more and more personal, until even these two rivals can’t ignore they were destined for the most unexpected, awkward, all-the-feels romance that neither of them expected.

What a great debut! I loved everything about this multi-layered contemporary that was both parts dramatic and hilarious.

Emma Lord did a really great job of integrating social media into the story without it being overdone or overused. I loved how much our two characters grew and developed not only with each other and their families, but within themselves. Pepper and Jack (yes, like that Pepper Jack) slowly became friends before anything else romantic happened—truly hate-to-friends-to-lovers. This isn’t something you see all that often, usually the friendship step gets skipped over.

This could have easily been a corny YA romance that lacked substance, but this was just so lovely and I really really loved it.
