Commit (The Sweet Rom "Com") by Kortney Keisel - A Review

This was a sweet, second-chance rom-com novella with excellent banter (my absolute favorite) and lovable characters. Told in alternating past and present timelines, it’s filled with tender moments between Matt and Remi that were easy to fall for.

Set in beautiful Key West, the story brings the exes together for a mutual friends’ wedding—awkwardly sharing a hotel suite after having RSVP’d while still together. Forced proximity plus unresolved feelings makes for plenty of sparks.

Remi can be frustratingly self-absorbed, but her insecurity and fear of commitment add emotional depth that feels messy and real rather than just cute. Matt, on the other hand, is patient, sincere, and wonderfully steady. Despite its short length, the story balances lighthearted humor with genuine vulnerability, showing that love—and healing—aren’t always easy.

I give Commit 4 out of 5 stars. If you love second-chance romances with witty banter, chemistry, and a vacation-like setting, this novella is a sweet, satisfying read with a meaningful message about love, patience, and working through hard things.
