This sure started off with a bang! XD I did really like this. It's got all the family feels, a haunted building, food, a hot nerdy professor, and more. Sure made me miss family gatherings though.

Holy cow why did I put this one off for so long. Had me sobbing at midnight from the emotional pay off, and I don think I've loved a contemporary MMC like this since Josh Templeman. I'm in awe of how Lopez manages to write such a beautiful story about community and forgiveness that's also unbearably hot. I hope that she's planning to return to this town and soon.

The beginning of this book was rough, to say the least. However, it did pick up mabye a third of the way through. I do with there was more resolution though between Alex and her dad. I wish it would've discussed why her father made the choice he did, and the history of why . . . I did really appreciate the small town, particularly considering how there are small town stories never told because the person telling them a POC.

4.75

Why is no one talking about this book?! This is one of the BEST romance books I have ever read and I want everyone to read it. 
I HAVE to give it a 4.75 for now though because the copy editing is a MESS. There were no less than 3 typos and that's too too many. 
But okay this book starts off with a literal bang and then the t e n s i o n throughout the book is just delicious. Mixed with the bit of mystery scouting? So good. And the cast of characters is incredible. Alex has a lot of growth and really made me feel for her and her journey. 
I think the end could have used a bit more work, tbh. I didn't love the white savior aspect of the ML saving everything with his money. Also Alex being a descendant was not surprising, which is fine, but I wish it had been integrated a bit better or something?

Jeremiah needed to not wear so many fedoras also. Like I know that's a nitpick but they are v much not the look atm ha.
