This Won't End Well by Camille Pagan

This Won't End Well

by Camille Pagan

An ingeniously witty novel about the risks—and rewards—of opening your life to new people by Amazon Charts bestselling author Camille Pagán.

No new people: that’s Annie Mercer’s vow. It’s bad enough that her boss sabotaged her chemistry career and her best friend tried to cure her with crystals. But after her fiancé, Jon, asks for space while he’s gallivanting around Paris, Annie decides she needs space too—from everyone.

Yet when Harper moves in next door, Annie can’t help but train a watchful eye on the glamorous but fragile young woman. And if keeping Harper safe requires teaming up with Mo, a maddeningly optimistic amateur detective, who is she to mind her own business?

Soon Annie has let not one but two new people into her life. Then Jon reappears—and he wants her to join him in France. She’s pretty sure letting anyone get close won’t end well. So she must decide: Is another shot at happiness worth the risk?

... But It Actually Does. Pagan once again creates a great story of a woman finding herself through a difficult and unexpected situation. In this particular scenario, it happens to involve a situation I've lived a version of, as a science professional leaving a job unexpectedly and forced to pick up seemingly menial work. Mostly light hearted with just enough punch to make things interesting, this is one that long time fans will love and new readers will quickly become fans. Very much recommended.
