I LOVED THIS BOOK SO MUCH!! I put off reading it for a while because I was scared it wasn’t going to live up to how much I loved Last Call at the Local but I realize now how stupid of me that was. This book was phenomenal and I didn’t want to stop reading it. THE PINING and emotion in this book had me in a complete chokehold. I just needed these character to BE TOGETHER!!!! Ollie and Nina have been in this weird casual marriage of convenience situation for nine years where they both love each other but Nina is too scared of loosing Ollie to actually commit to him. Finally, Ollie gives Nina an ultimatum saying that unless she admits she’s in love with him and fully commits to their marriage, he’s leaving for good. Romance books that have a thread of sadness running through them are what I LIVE for. please go read this book if you haven’t already!!!! Time for me to pick up Love, Lists & Fancy Ships (yes I’m aware I’m reading this series backwards)
