London Sperry\u2019s debut novel is a romantic comedy that\u2019s just as much about rediscovering joy as it is about falling in love\u2014and it\u2019s a strong start for a new author.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Bennet Taylor\u2019s life is not exactly thriving. Temping in New York City, floating without direction, and still grieving the loss of her first love, she\u2019s emotionally adrift. Then, after standing up Henry Adams for a first date, fate throws them back together\u2014leading to an alcohol-fueled confession: she\u2019s not ready to date and hasn\u2019t felt passionate about anything in years. Rather than walking away, Henry suggests a new kind of adventure. Each Saturday, they\u2019ll try something new together to help Bennet find a spark\u2014strictly as friends.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Their \u201cpassion project\u201d takes them everywhere from pottery studios to rooftop rappelling, and along the way, Bennet begins to reconnect not just with the world but with herself. The chemistry between Bennet and Henry is sweet and believable, with sparkling banter and a slow burn that pays off in a small dose of open-door romance toward the end.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">For a debut, this was a really enjoyable read. I liked following Bennet\u2019s journey as she slowly started to come back to life\u2014and Henry? Such a cute, charming character. Their dynamic was fun, and the banter made their connection feel natural. I also appreciated the way grief was explored in the story. It wasn\u2019t something I expected going in, but it worked well and didn\u2019t overwhelm the lighter tone. It made Bennet\u2019s growth feel real. The book moves quickly and would be a perfect summer read\u2014fun, heartfelt, and easy to sink into.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><em>Passion Project<\/em> is a compassionate, hopeful story about healing, rediscovering yourself, and learning to let love in again. With its emotional depth, flirty dialogue, and unique premise, it\u2019s more than just a rom-com\u2014it\u2019s a story that reminds us that love often finds us when we\u2019re finally ready to welcome it. Whether you\u2019re in the mood for something heartfelt or just looking for your next feel-good summer read, this one\u2019s worth picking up.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">\n<div class=\"ubb-final-rating\"><\/div>\n<\/p><p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/booknookbuzz.com\/passion-project-by-london-sperry\/\">Passion Project by London Sperry<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/booknookbuzz.com\/\">Book Nook Buzz<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Passion Project by London Sperry on April 8, 2025 Genres: Fiction \/ Romance \/ Contemporary, Fiction \/ Romance \/ Romantic Comedy, Fiction \/ Women Pages: 368 Format: Audiobook, Hardcover Buy on Amazon Goodreads Anyone who has ever felt stuck in their twenties, unsure of their purpose or still healing from loss, Passion Project will feel [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":2681,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2680","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bookloves.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2680"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bookloves.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bookloves.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bookloves.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2680"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/bookloves.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2680\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bookloves.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/2681"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bookloves.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2680"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bookloves.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2680"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bookloves.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2680"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
