Emily y Jameson, estubo muy atrapante su historia, ellos tienen una noche loca en una escala de vuelo. Se vuelven a ver un año después cuando ella entra a trabajar en la empresa de él.
Hubiera sido un 4 pero no me termino de convencer como el la trato en ciertos momentos de su relación, ya sea antes de que sean oficiales o despues de eso la verdad.

The Stopover begins at an airport where Emily finds herself upgraded to first class after an argument with another passenger. Emily is seated next to Jim (Jameson) and at first they do nothing but disagree. After some drinking and a long flight, they end up talking and finding some common ground and enjoy each other's company so when they can’t land in NY, they spend their time together in bed. She is very disappointed that he leaves and never asks for her number. This is where I was left disappointed because for a book titled The Stopover, I was expecting a lot more storyline to take place here.
Now a year later, Emily has moved to NY for a new job, which happens to be Jameson’s company. Emily is not interested in reconnecting with Jameson, she is hurt and angry with him. Jameson is trying his best to insert him into Emily’s life. I really did enjoy the story and the secondary story going on. Emily and Jameson had some very steamy scenes and when they got together at first they were very good together. I was mostly annoyed when Emily caught Jameson in an awkward position with his ex-fiance but her trust in him led to her being understanding but then when Jameson sees some photos of Emily that don’t look too good, he doesn’t even trust her or give her a chance to explain. This would have been a 5 star read for me until the end where Jameson ruined it and I almost didn’t want them to end up together.

The idea was interesting. I wanted to like this book but I LOATHE false conflict. 75% of the book the two leads were angry and mad at each other for no genuine reason. They got mad at each just to be mad. ALL of their issues would have been solved if they just communicated with each other. If the characters were high schoolers, I would understand. But believe I will not a couple in their late 20s/early 30s can't talk to each other to resolve their issues. I checked the publish date for this book several times because most of the book acts like texting barely exists. So much of the characters' frustration is due to phone calls not being answered. Who calls people anymore?
The third act breakup is what really pissed me off. Emily goes to meet a source for info on the traitor and lies to her boyfriend about where she's going and who with. Why? How hard is it to text him, 'meeting with Jake at bar. He says he has a lead. I'll see you afterwards.' If one text message can unravel the climax of the plot, then that's lazy writing. I will not be reading another book by this author.

I really liked the idea of this book, however there was way too much fighting, and horrible things said between the couple. An altercation is to be expected, but when they were cussing and saying such horrible things, I was immediately turned off.

3 ⭐️ I’m all for fun toxicity, but this was the epitome of miscommunication to me and that is my least favorite trope.
It had me in the first half of the book!!
But I hate when a third act breakup is based off of miscommunication and immaturity.
Excited to read the second one about Tristan though, because I’ve been told it’s the best one

I ever want to see the word "sexily" ever again. I need a break from Contemporary romance after this one.

Fantastic book especially on audiobook. The narrator changes between characters making it easier to follow and grip you.
Rather raunchy but very enjoyable book!
