So Into You by Kathleen Fuller is labeled as a Rom-Com but I don't think this is the right label for this book. This book deals with some heavy issues like alcholism and anxiety. An alternate name for this book could be Keeping Secrets since many of the characters in this book had secrets they did not reveal to those who were close to them. The female lead character Brit has a successful youtube channel where she instructs art techniques. Despite her successs Brit has anxiety issues. She has trouble getting out in the public. Hunter PIckett happened upon her channel by accident and was intriqued so he connects with her. Later on they meet up and form a friendship. Hunter has his own issues. He is a recovering alcoholic who is estranged from his wealthy family. Brit and Hunter have a growing relationship. Brit has a low opinion of herself and finds it hard to believe a good looking guy like Hunter could be interested in her. Both are guilty of keeping secrets. Hunter does not reveal to her that he is estranged from his family because he is a recovering alcoholic. Brit has her own secrets. Her mother does not know that she has re-connected with her father who also is a recovering alcoholic. I mostly liked all the characters in this book. Even Hunter's parents won me over. They just wanted the best for their son. Brit's mother Amy was a bit overbearing. She was over-protective of Brit, treated her like a child and did not respect her daughter's decisions.
I enjoyed this books and looking forward to more contemporary stories from this author who usually writes Amish fiction.
