The Rom-Com Agenda is a quick read with lovable characters. It is a friends to lovers and a book about a found family.

Leah comes to town as a foster child and stays with her foster family until she ages out and goes back to live with her birth mom until she passes away. She moves back to town to take care of her dying ex-foster mom. She stays in town after her death until she earns enough money to move on. Thinking that she has no one, no reason to stay. Leah overhears the proposal and breakup of two people on the bridge while below the bridge. She catches the guy when his to-be fiance leaves. She sees him and thinks he sees her. Until he leaves and she goes home. Eli spends the book watching movies to learn how to be the romantic hero he wants to be to get Victoria back.

The movie references that Eli is forced to watch as part. of his rom-com makeover are great! From the 70’s, ’80s, and ’90s romantic classics to even some fandom movies, such as Marvel and Starwars. I loved the references and how Leah keeps popping up as her many jobs keep her showing up from the clothing shop to the tailor, to a restaurant, house cleaner, and even pizza delivery. I also like that the person getting the romantic makeover in this book is Eli, not Leah.

I really enjoyed this story and would recommend it to any rom-com, friends to lovers, or found family book lovers looking for a light read.
