Typically I would give this book the same rating I've been giving the rest of the series for the same reasons (an EXTREMELY fast wrap up) but I genuinely loved this book so much it deserves the 5 stars imo. This book rests on a premise that could be a) boring and b) unnecessarily hurtful to the MCs in the hands of a different writer but Long transforms it into something deeply fun, extremely sexy, and highly emotional. 

Something I've somehow failed to mention in all my reviews of Long's other work is that her writing is just superb. I really savored this book and felt so immersed in the prose. I had moments where I was fully giggling and kicking my feet over what was happening on the page. I honestly didn't want it to end. 

If you like a book where two people just SEE each other and everything starts falling into place, this one is perfect.
