I always find Rachel Hawkin's books to be just a straight-up fun time, no matter the genre, audience, or setting, and this was no exception. I enjoyed the way this played out so much (and loved the ending!). It is a bit of a slow burn as a thriller and took a minute to get going, and I do think it would have been a tiny bit more believable if some of the characters were in their mid-thirties instead of mid-twenties. Still, it was a great ride and the audiobook is a really enjoyable listen.
