Isla and Josh are everything to me!! I think their book might be right up there with Anna and Etienne's and I couldn't get enough. I liked that they got together pretty quickly in this book. The other characters in the series were more of a build and while Isla and Josh had their struggles they did establish their relationship early on. I liked the back and forth between New York City and Paris, and seeing the cameos from the other characters towards the end. I also loved that Josh was Jewish and while it wasn't a huge part of the story, it was mentioned a couple of times. Overall, the love story here was so swoony and I was here for it from beginning to end.
