But as I’m sure you can expect, they don’t realise just how head over heels they end up falling for each other. Together, they plan a summer of the typical scenes you would see in a “falling in love” montage in many rom-coms, with no ties to each other once the summer is over. The Falling in Love Montage follows the hilarious Saoirse, a teenager from Ireland who’s just finished exams and wants a summer of fun to take away from her problems. I’m honestly going to be raving about this for the rest of the review because I loved it so much, so if that’s not your thing, you should probably leave now. It would be the perfect plan, if they weren’t forgetting one thing about the Falling in Love Montage: when it’s over, the characters actually fall in love… for real. Unbothered by Saoirse’s no-relationships rulebook, Ruby proposes a loophole: They don’t need true love to have one summer of fun, complete with every cliché, rom-com montage-worthy date they can dream up-and a binding agreement to end their romance come fall. For a girl with one blue freckle, an irresistible sense of mischief, and a passion for rom-coms.

She doesn’t see the point in igniting any romantic sparks if she’s bound to burn out.īut after a chance encounter at an end-of-term house party, Saoirse is about to break her own rules. A condition that Saoirse may one day turn out to have inherited. If they were real, her mother would still be able to remember her name and not in a care home with early onset dementia. Saoirse doesn’t believe in love at first sight or happy endings. The Falling in Love Montage by Ciara Smyth YA Romance, Contemporary, LGBTQ Goodreads | Bookshop | Book Depository
