The Do-Over by T.L. Swan
3.0
Rating this one was hard for me. I love the first 3 books in the series, with the first 2 being absolute knockouts. That said, this one felt like I was reading a different series. The only times that I felt like I was actually reading a Miles High book was in the scenes with the rest of the Miles' brothers. I think the problem for me is that this wasn't an office/workplace romance like the first 3 books are. While I enjoyed the backpacking experience through Christopher's POV (some scenes being incredibly funny), I just found myself missing the parts that made me enjoy the other novels in the series so much.
That being said, I did still really enjoy this book. It was a slow start. I really didn't start to find myself invested until about the 30% mark, but once I hit that point, I devoured the rest of the book in one sitting. Christopher was another spectacular Miles brother. I really enjoyed the fact that TL Swan wrote him to be afraid of imperfections and it made his chapters really enjoyable to read. He also had just that perfect amount of possessive and jealous levels that he shares with the rest of his brothers. Hayden was a bit of a bore for me and I didn't really find anything about her that stood out. I just felt like Emily, Claire, and Kate all had a bit more fiestyness to them. However, I did enjoy the romance and relationship between the 2. Their friendship was believable and the journey to lovers was even more believable.
3.75 stars
