This book was good, but nothing spectacular. Bailey does a good job with writing her morally gray grump MMC and sunshine FMC in this summer rom-com thriller, though the thriller/mystery aspects are lacking between the middle/end of the book. Also, if you’re not a fan of romance books with tons of spice, this is not going to be the book for you. While the relationship built-up was strong throughout the book, it felt like it was more insta-lust, which I wasn’t a fan of. Don’t know if I would read this again, but it’s not terrible.

I love this despite the issues!

There are plot holes and inconsistencies in description, plus a few editing/grammatical errors, but honestly I don't even care. I had so much fun reading this and ended up staying up until midnight on a work night to finish it. I already bought the physical book as well :).
