OK, I tried this one after Promises and Pomegranates. I just can't find a purchase with this series. The synopsis sounds great, but the actual story while reading... rang a little hollow for me. Maybe it was the characters, maybe this style of retelling is just not clicking with me. Not sure.

2/5🌶️    The plot of this book was all over the place. I feel like there were subplots that could have played a bigger role but were dealt with behind the scenes. But even the main plot of the book with him being her stackers was all over the place a little. The writing is okay but I think plays into why the plot was everywhere. I did like that there was a time jump because when we the read is told that she is a senior in high school and he was 21 I was very uncomfortable even though she was 18. And when Millie showed up at the art gallery I know she was the one to leak their night together to the press. I didn’t know how that was gonna be resolved as I was getting really close to the end of the book. But having Millie kidnap Riley because she was a super fan brought it full circle. One final note, Aiden’s grand gesture during New Year’s Eve was so fucking cute though! 

This book/series is proof that although anyone can write, not everyone should

“Every time, it feels like coming home.
And maybe you’re not supposed to find that in other people, but I can’t imagine what a lonely existence it must be to leave your heart with empty buildings only.
I happen to like that my home has a heartbeat.”

Ehh if you’re into stalkers this might be more for you
