This book was decent. I enjoyed the little plot twist it wasn’t what I was expecting it to be and although it had a third act breakup it wasn’t because of the typical miscommunication. It did feel like it dragged on a few chapters too long, but overall it was sort of entertaining. Carter and Quinn were cute. I’d be interested in reading a second book about Olivia and Auden’s relationship. Loved that it has my favorite quote from Bring It On “You’ve been touched by an angel girl.”
