I can't express to you how happy this book made me. It was just the right amount of hilarious, dramatic, realistic, heartbreaking, sexy and sweet. It was fucking fantastic. This is the kind of messy relationship that struggles to make sense of itself, with flawed characters who have to grow together and as themselves in order to fit.

I bumped it down a bit because I think Ethan could have been more well developed as a character and he was a bit oblivious towards the end.

Quick entertaining read. Would have given it a higher rating if the MN place info and pronunciations had been more accurate and organic- the mini glitches pulled me out of the story flow. One of the problems was that I know where the streets and locations are and I was using them as actual descriptors vs what I think were more of a suggestion. Also Ami should have gone to St. Kate's IMO- but that's picking nits haha.

All in all, I'm just not a romance person, and while this was a nice little slice-of-life, rom-com style story, it was ultimately a bit boring and forgettable for me. It's a fun beach/vacation read if you're looking for laughter and drama, but it's personally not something I would reach for again. Still willing to give this author a chance, though!
