Change on the Fly by Maren Moore

3.0

I read this because I really liked Maren Moore's "A Festive Feud" and also enjoyed her "Mistletoe Bet", but this one was kind of a miss for me. I didn't hate it so I'm still giving it three stars, but it wasn't my favorite book.

Reed becomes the guardian of his three year old nephew and (as a mother) that was all I could think about. When Reed and Holland were hooking up in the hotel rooms, where was this child? Did they have a baby monitor? Were they helping this child adjust to the death of his parents?? Evan (the child) felt like a random prop in the story (which is sort of fine bc I didn't come to read this for a story about becoming a child's guardian but ...

I felt like I never really connected with any of the characters and lots of things were mentioned once and not again or sort of glossed over.

It does look like this book was published before her Christmas books (which I enjoyed) so I'll definitely be reading more of Maren Moore, but likely won't be rereading this one.
