Not bad. I just felt really bored throughout. And I didn’t find the romance between Anna and Will believable due to a total lack of chemistry. I have loved Cousens other books, but this one just didn't do enough for me. I think the bigger issue is that the lead, Anna, is older than Will, and she keeps acting like someone who is not the age she is. She has two kids, a messy ex-husband, and I just didn't gibe that with her obsessing about Will. Probably because Cousens didn't develop Will enough which is a shock, since I have previously found her male heroes very well developed. 

"Is She Really Going Out with Him" follows Anna Appleby, who is a columnist at a small paper in Bath. Anna is struggling with her divorce from her husband and his moving on with someone younger, but also with the fact that her job may be on the line due to budget cuts. When Anna is asked to do more in-depth articles about her dating life [non-existent] and her enemy at work, Will, is asked to do a side by side with his dating experiences as well, Anna is not sure it's going to work. 

Most of the book though I think is just Anna being irritated by Will (rightfully and wrongly depending). I think Cousens was going for an enemies to lovers trope here, which is many a romance readers favorite things to read, but I just didn't get the enemies thing at all. Will was blah and the stuff he kept doing or was getting up to was just messy and gave me [swear word] boi behavior after a while.

I thought the side stories going on with Anna's daughter and her ex, didn't really move the book along. I thought that Cousens should have swerved at one point with one of the dates that Anna has [which piqued my interest honestly] but we just stuck with Anna and Will.

Not a bad romance book, firmly a 3 star read.
