I reserve 1 star for DNF but I cannot recommend this. Listened as audiobook and while I finished it out of some weird desire to see if it would get better, I can say it did not.

A quick love story, nothing to be amazed about it, but everyone needs a little bit of a simple romance sometimes. No complex characters here.

I had such a hard time reading this book. I started reading it six months ago and was in the DNF stage for a while. Then I started it again and stopped after two days. To finally started reading it again a month ago and finished it.
I wouldn't particularly call it a bad read because it's not; it's just that I couldn't relate to the story and main characters whatsoever. But supporting characters were another story and the main reason why I continued reading the series. 

Anyway, overall I see the appeal and why it's so popular, and I do recommend it to readers who like fun and spice (good spice ;))...
