Was excited for this trope, couldve been done better. Felt like there was a lot that was unresolved. First book was wayyyyyy better.
3⭐️ Elizabeth O’Roark is and will always be one of my favorite authors, I love her writing and how she creates relatable stories with characters from all different backgrounds. So this is nothing towards her as an author.
Overall, this book was just okay to me. I was excited about this book and Drew’s story after reading book 1 in the series. I liked Josh and the whole premise with this story. I loved Beth and how she became the mother Drew never had. She was my favorite character in this book; I loved all the scenes with her and I was grateful that her storyline ended the way it did.
The plot was good enough that I wanted to continue and see how it ended, but where it fell flat was the pacing. I usually love a slow burn and would choose it over an insta love any day, but this book really dragged it out. There were a lot of moments with Josh and Drew for the first 75% where nothing really exciting happened except normal vacation adventures. We finally get some forward movement in the relationship in the last 25%, but by that point it seemed to move too quickly and didn’t have enough time to flesh out many of the story points sufficiently. I ended up skimming a lot just to finish it. Such a bummer, but not every book in a series can be your favorite.
