Are Christina Lauren officially back? They’re really hit and miss for me — more misses lately than hits — but this book was so good. I flew through, never wanting to put it down. The plot unfolded at a perfect pace alongside the romance, the obstacles in their relationship made perfect sense, the characters themselves were root-able and believable… it all came together so nicely. The only flaw here was, I think, the setup, but it was swept under the rug nicely and dealt with as realistically as humanly possible so it wasn’t as much of a deterrent as such a ridiculous hook could’ve been. I really, really enjoyed this one, and it’s such a pleasant surprise!
