At the beginning until the third-part of the book, I was going to give it a 3'75 stars, but it has changed. What I liked about Anna's and Lola's stories is that there was a clear development between them and their love interests before being together at the end (also the fact that Etienne and Lola had partners play a huge role in this). We don't have that in Isla's story. They end up together pretty much at the beginning. But I liked the fact that Isla grew in this relationship with Josh, that their moment together and apart made her realize things that she did not thought before.
It's different from the previous 2 books, and I like that about this book. So, yeah, I loved this book and it has the perfect ending for these three beautiful couples.
