“He’s not just kinda hot, he’s Bunsen-burner-blue-flame hot.”
This is my first ever Helena Hunting book so yes, I didn’t read the first book, When Sparks Fly (not yet, at least), which is about Avery, the eldest sister. So, I definitely didn’t know how it’s gonna be like.
The verdict? I liked it!
It’s lighthearted and funny but with just a bit of conflict and I think that’s great. It’s what I currently need so I really enjoyed reading this. There were moments where I giggled and moments which got me exclaiming “OMG!”
I loved that there’s chemistry between London and Jackson. That moment when they met again was done so well! I could literally imagine it and just thinking about what the people around them were (probably) thinking makes me laugh. Oh Mitchell!
Easily digestible and fun. Characters are also very easy to like and there wasn’t one where I felt I need to have them deleted from the book. There is heat🔥 but not too over the top.
