don’t read this book if dementia effects your family it will make you cry while making brownies on a wednesday.
i wanted this to be rated higher, but i dont think insta love books are for me. my mans was head over heels for samantha from the first page of the book and that just doesn’t feel believable to me.
however (!!!!!!) the effort that both of them put in to the long distance relationship (which, let’s be real that was the entire relationship) was very believable that they were in love i guess.
samantha was so confident in her job, and maybe that’s just because we never really went too deep into her position, but her reaction to being fired told me enough that i knew sister was shonked
hank was really a sleeper guardian angel to xavier
things i didn’t like: the constant bringing up of come on eileen….didnt care for that at all. but ms. jimenez has a habit of constantly mentioning the one token thing from how the main couple met throughout the story, and i think she could do with 75% less of the mentions. maybe 3 times max.
