Overall this one wasn't my favorite follow-up. I really wanted a lot for Eli because he was one of my favorites from the previous book, and I could not wait to see this one play out. Plus, it has a surprise baby angle, and that's my freaking jam! I loved seeing the tension between Eli and Penny. We got the extra layer because of everything with Pacey, but it took way too long for Pacey and Eli to make up. 
Even though I loved the banter in this one, and I loved seeing how these two were going to makeup, I hated how Penny handled it. She knew how Eli felt, and he told he how hard it was for him to open up due to his abandonment issues, but she still just did the whole third-act breakup crap, and it just crashed and burned for me. I wanted more for them. Plus, I'm just tired of the miscommunication and third-act breakups.
