I loved this. Some of the tropes aren’t my favorite, and it took Chris entirely too long to come up with the obvious solution to their problem, but the two MCs and their chemistry sold me again and again. This read as a standalone just fine, even if the Previous MCs were a little obvious, but I do feel like I was missing some backstory about the college that contributed to why things would be so difficult, and who the hell Jeanette was, as she sort of popped out of nowhere. So I’m excited to read more from Montgomery either way.
