Written In The Stars by Alexandria Bellefleur

4.0

This was a really fun read that I blew through in a single beach day. I really liked it and the relationship between Elle and Darcy checked all of my boxes: opposites attract, a deeply repressed main character, and great chemistry. The one thing I struggled with was the brother/matchmaker, Brendan, who was in some ways charming and came off as the great guy he was clearly meant to be, but whose absolute disregard for boundaries was incredibly off-putting, particularly at the beginning. It took me most of the book to warm up to him because of that, and I was still not able to get all the way there. Otherwise, though, this was a a winner!
