I loved this! Adams has such a nice and easy writing style while still managing to bring across deep and real relationships. There's a great setting and I loved the small-town-vibes. At some points, I couldn't really believe that Amelia was actually this mega-star, she just seemed too normal, if that makes sense? But her and Noah's relationship was still absolutely adorable and I love how they still managed to make it work in the end <3

Solid little romance book, keyword little. I wanted a little more from each perspective character’s inner life, but I like how the plot played out.
