This was a super fun summer read. Definitely made me miss summers when I had very little responsibilities. It also made me wish for my own compound to host friends & family. I definitely loved the giant game of assassin and how nearly everyone got involved. That’s goals.

I wish the characters were aged up just a smidge - like maybe 2 years? I think it would have made more sense.

A good summer read! I liked the big family dynamics and the setting. The romance was cute but a bit rushed, I think.
The amount of Taylor Swift references made me feel like I was reading in a secret language.

I wasn't sure I'd like this or not since straight romance can be a little hit or miss for me but since I read this author's work before, I gave it a shot and I'm happy I did.

This was so cute and wholesome and the perfect summer read/beach read. It gives the best vacation kind of vibes too. The detail that was put into the setting was done so well. While this was really lighthearted and fluffy it still dealt heavily with grief with the MC and her working through the loss of her sister all the while having to be back to a place that brought up old memories. This was written really nicely.

Overall, if you want to read about a wholesome family playing assassin while at their vacation home for a family members wedding then I suggest this for you.
