Thank you Hyperion Avenue and Netgalley for providing me with an e-copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Y’all I am obsessed with this!! Tangled is one of my all time favoueite Disney films and this book captured its essence perfectly while still standing strong as its own contemporary romance.

Ren was an absolute delight. She was naive but intelligent, uncertain but brave, sheltered but outgoing. Her wide-eyed curiosity and friendliness made me love her instantly, just the way everyone she came into contact with did.

Except Fitz. And god, I loved how much Fitz was annoyed by her at the start. It made the way he softened towards her until he was falling for her so much more delicious to read. I especially loved the transition from Fitz to Edward, the way their growing trust and his change was reflected in the text that way.

I loved their relationship. I always love a road trip story and this one was just so stupidly sweet. Obviously, being a fan of Tangled, I knew where the plot was headed, but parts of it still managed to take me by surprise which was awesome.

I definitely recommend this if you’re looking for a light, fluffy romance read.
