Initially, the narration style was challenging for me, but I adjusted. A lot of the story was the writer telling rather than showing and there were info dumps throughout that felt awkward and rushed the story along too quickly.

The premise was promising, and I enjoyed the female friendship aspect of the story. That being said, both romantic relationships between Holly & Aiden and Ivy & Oliver developed too quickly and lacked depth.

Additionally, there were some inconsistencies in time zones between chapters that were difficult to overlook.

I really wish this was twice as long to give the story time to unfold. It just wasn't long enough for the author to accomplish what she wanted to.
