I really enjoyed this book. I initially went in blind, and soon after realised what a mistake that was! I was so confused as to why there were two men but never referred to at the same time. Eventually, I realised that I was being an idiot, and once I'd grasped onto the parallel storylines, I really enjoyed the dynamics of the book. 

Becca was such a fun character - I loved reading about her romantic adventures, and particularly loved her relationships with her friends, which felt so real! While the initial romances of both storylines felt slightly underwhelming to me, I think it made my enjoyment of her final choice so much more thrilling as the book really picked up pace 25% of the way through. 

If you're after a fun, unique romance to quench your need for a summer book, this is the book for you! 

Thanks to Penguin and NetGalley for early access to this book!
