Griffin has grown up his whole life in a competition. He’s the younger twin and their whole lives they have been competing. But now that they are adults, it’s quite unhealthy. Griffin and his brother are night and day and Griffin gives everyone what they expect from him, a goof, a screwup. His brother will never see any different, so it seems. So after Griffin made some not so great remarks, his agent sent him on a vacation of sorts..away from the spotlight. He didn’t expect to run into an old acquaintance.
Ruby used to be neighbors to the King brothers. She would climb a tree and watch them play together when they were younger. She admired that they were good at everything. Her whole life has been planned, and predicted, and following a certain plan and she was sick of it. She wanted to live. Stepping outside of her box, she runs into her old neighbor Griffin. At first, she wants nothing to do with him but soon finds she feels comfortable around him. She also realizes very quickly, he’s not the guy everyone protrays him to be.
They come to an agreement, to spend time together while he’s in town, but what starts out as something fun turns into something much more meaningful.
This was a cute read. Some parts were really good, fun banter and chemistry, some parts read a bit long, but still entertaining over all. I wish the middle would have shortened a bit to allow for shorter jumps towards the end..some moments would have been fun to read about that were skipped. Thank you NetGalley, appreciate and enjoyed the book.
