The character of Naomi was written incredibly with the whole opposite twin thing. She felt the need to be perfect in order to balance Tina's horrible behaviour but thankfully she learnt how to be herself and make mistakes throughout the story which I think makes her a relatable and great character.
Knox was always shown as a grumpy character but we never really knew why until the very end. I thought it was nice to see him actually open up to Naomi because of how much he loved her. I really enjoyed watching his character development in the book.
The whole story and the side characters were really well-written and they all had their unique personalities, all of which were actually interesting.
Knockemout as a town and a community has got me wanting to move to a small town and find myself a Knox.
I'd recommend this book to people who love slow-burn romances that are a grumpy x sunshine as well. The storyline is also great and if you pay attention you can connect small strings which makes reading much more fun for me personally.

There was the occasional bit of dialogue/character name etc that made me cringe but it did what it set out to do so I've got no REAL problems with it.

🇬🇧: When I started this book, I wasn't really looking forward to it because it's so thick. Once I started, I didn't have any problems with this at all. The beginning was a bit long-winded in my opinion and it took a while to get into it, but once I got into it it was good. Knox is truly my heart and has everything I look for in a grumpy man. Naomi was also great, she was the quintessential sunshine that every grumpy VS sunshine trope needs. Their romance really fit the story well too. It was a slow-burn romance, but I thought that suited this book very well. In addition to spice and romance, the book is also packed with action and adventure, which attracted my attention again and again. All in all, a great book and highly recommended (although I would have liked it to be a little shorter, especially the beginning).
