I like the women in these stories, and the constant growth of characters. Could not stand the male lead, or his brother, in this one. 

I read about 60% of this book and just could not force myself to read the rest. It wasn’t awful but I just didn’t love this trope. Making a bet to see if she will cheat on her boyfriend trope just wasn’t my thing. I get that Mac’s boyfriend was a serious jerk but it was just a no for me. I feel the book just fell flat and could of been better. It reminded me in the beginning of the Anna Todd series.

2.5 stars. Unfortunately, this book was a miss for me. The couple was very immature with a lot of stupid, toxic drama. I didn't really like either one of them. I found it gross how much the hero, Evan, talked about every woman he saw sexually. It did not make me think he loved and only wanted Genevieve, even when he was supposedly turning over a new leaf to be more mature for her. I just couldn't see either of them as functioning adults with jobs. They were too irresponsible, partying with drinking and drugs, immature and unlikeable. The story was not bad and could have been better with more likeable characters. But this book was a chore to finish and did not work for me.

I really love this series and how they connect with the characters. I was so excited for Evan’s story and POV. It felt a tiny bit underwhelming with a rushed ending, but I did enjoy the growth and the relationships. The subplot with the mom was cool too. I’m gonna reread The Summer Girl since I read it alone in 2023. The storyline will probably make even more sense with all the side characters now that I’ve read Good Girl Complex & Bad Girl Reputation 🫶🏼

second chances are my favorite and seriously under rated. loved this one!

Absolutely loved this book just like the first! Could not put it down and really enjoyed the relationship of Evan and Gen. Loved the second chances theme and watching people grow for the one they love.
