Off the Hook by Julie Olivia

4.0

This is my first Julie Olivia book, even though my friend Bethany has been recommending her books to me for a while (sorry Bethany, ily). 

This was a really good balance between sweet and spicy. Deffff a slow burn, but worth it. That being said, I felt things were drawn out a little bit. I got to like 80ish % and didn’t feel like *that* much had really happened? I still enjoyed though. 

Given that this is Peter Pan “inspired” and not a retelling like so many are, I really enjoyed the little nods to the original Peter Pan in this contemporary setting. 

Highlights: 
  • Romance: MF
  • Single dad / nanny
  • Grumpy/sunshine
  • Ex-fiancé’s older brother 
  • Small town romance
  • Slow burn
  • Peter Pan inspired
