Even though Daisy was probably my favorite Wallflower, I think this book was my least favorite from the series. 

I still really enjoyed it, but I struggled a lot with Matthew for some reason. I thought in the beginning I might like him the most but then his personality fell kind of flat for me. 

Also some of this might have to do with the audio because the American accents felt like they weren't super consistent and the emotion wasn't really coming through for me when Matthew would speak. So I might change my mind if I read this with my eyes in the future.

First, Annoyed that I didn’t read this one earlier. I’ve reread the rest of the wallflowers multiple times but couldn’t bring myself to read this one mostly because I was annoyed about Daisy/Cam in Devil in the winter. Mine Til Midnight was the first Lisa Kleypas book (so it has a special place in my heart), so it kind of felt like Cam was cheating on Amelia. But Scandal in Spring was really sweet and I really liked their relationship.

Second, my biggest criticism was that Mr Bowman sounded like Roz from Monsters Inc in the audiobook.

I loved this one, one of my favorites of the wallflowers series. She’s convinced they’re enemies, he’s been secretly in love with her since they met. It’s a sweet read, one of Kleypas best.
