I don’t have a whole lot to say about this one but I believe it could’ve been condensed and edited. The author treats the reader as kind of dumb, explaining the background in asides as often as possible, it made it difficult to read honestly. I don’t think I’ll read anything else from this author. Also, irrelevant and no way influences what I say here on my review but the smex scenes weren’t smexy at all in fact they were rather brief. And I’m not expecting erotica but you can’t build us all up with slow burn for a two paragraph passion piece. I’m a little heated since I just finished this but I feel like my opinion won’t change even after a bit.

Amazing. I’m crying and swooning and everything. This book was fun from the first page and I adored the Annie and Will (and the rest of the cast of course!). The humor is plucky and I really related to Annie. This romance was genuinely so sweet and tender, and I loved seeing Annie and Will both grow throughout. The perfect fluffy romance that fades to black.
