Thank you to netgalley and the publisher for this advanced readers copy!

It should first be said that I read this book in one setting. While it did start out a little slowly for me- it picked up around the 30-35% range. I liked the dual POV a lot in this book. This one is one of grey’s steamier novels for sure! I liked the premise quite a bit and the pacing ended up working for me. I liked the female friendship that was featured. It did seem like the hero’s bff may have been or will be featured in a book.

The portion that didn’t quite hit for me: the hero and heroine have some drama from the past and they never actually have a conversation about why the heroine made her choices back then. The reader knows why she does it, but she never actually talks to the hero about it. Also the very last reuniting scene was too far fetched and out of character for the hero, I wish the author would’ve come up with a different explanation for that occurrence. Lastly, I don’t think the epilogue added anything to the story.

Overall this was a fun and quick steamy - perfect for the summer- read. I’d totally recommend it for anyone hunting for a summer romance!

3.75-4 stars
