It had the same charm as Elena’s other books, but it felt super rushed and that it was missing key elements to make it better. Adalyn is really dis likable and really never redeems herself. The story was okay, but the ending really lost me. They were acting as if the problem was end all or be all when in reality it wasn’t. Also Cam kept saying he was playing the long game, but by the time he said that Adalyn wasn’t fighting him back, and then he said it wasn’t a game for him so what was the point of all that. This book just missed the mark for me, but it still had sweet/funny rom-com moments.
