I was a little surprised to get a second point of view in the book that wasn't Beck. Instead it was one of Jillian's cousins, which seemed a little random. But I actually ended up liking her perspective! Maybe this book just hit me at the right time, but I had so much fun reading this book!

The story was mostly cozy mystery with a tiny side of romance, as in honesty you could have taken Beck and Jillian’s romantic interest in each other out of the mix and still have an awesome and enjoyable story. The tension between the two though was fabulous, although it did shaft to fizzle a bit once they got together and the entire story overall started to be a little less fast paced and quick witted and a little bit sluggish at times. However, it picks up and the story is well worth the read.
I loved the extra focus on their family dynamics and the point of view focusing at times on a character other than Jillian which gave the side characters more depth.
Oh! And also for the romance fans out there, this was a closed door romance with great tension and dialogue. :)
All in all, I hope there’s another story with these characters and I really enjoyed the book! :)
