I just LOVED this book. Tessa Bailey doesn’t always write 5/5 star books but considering how many she has out, I’m pretty all of them bring me joy regardless final stars for me. 

This book had Pipper—a ditz and spoiled rich girl—but she’s LOVABLE. Most characters like her feel one dimensional but Pipper was a hoot. Brendan was gruff and delicious. Their relationship bloomed so beautifully. 

The ending felt real and pure and fitting for the characters. Highly recommend! I might buy it to reread later on.
