This book-. Taylor Jenkins Reid NEVER disappoints. I genuinely love the Riva siblings, I adore their dynamic and how different they are from each other. Nina, the eldest does anything to make other people happy, namely her siblings, you get to see her struggle between wanting to stick up for herself but not saying anything, she was my favorite character. Then we have Jay who has a massive ego but is protective of the youngest (Kit). Then Hud, who is sweet and kind. He is content in not being in the lime light. Then Kit the youngest, she has an attitude, she isn't afraid to speak her mind. I loved seeing it flick to the past and 'present'. And I really want to know what happened to the siblings after the conclusion of this book (knowing TJR she will hopefully put them in as a cameo in a future novel).
