✨ Review ✨ Jasmine and Jake Rock the Boat by Sonya Lalli
This book was super sweet and I really enjoyed it. Jasmine sets off on a cruise to Alaska with her not-so-close parents, finding out once on board that it's a seniors cruise. Jake is the only other young person on board and they run hot and cold -- friends to enemies to friends to lovers maybe to enemies and back again. They both have lots of things they're working through on their path to becoming the people they want to be and it was really lovely how that all came together here.
While I'd normally use "sweet" to describe romances of a quainter variety, the characters are anything but innocent flowers, and yet, maybe because of their own personal growth along the way, that's the word I'm stuck with. I really enjoyed this not only for the romance but also for the friendships, family relationships, and other personal growth throughout the book!
The audio narration was enjoyable and definitely brought some extra fun to the experience!
