I had low expectations going into this book because heist books don't impress me. I found myself laughing at the antics the Wedding Crew got in. The characters were a highlight for me more than the heist and romance, all unique with their quirks. Simi's accidental oversharing was alright at the beginning, but I appreciate she finds a shiner spine as the book progresses. The romance is okay
because Jack sweeps Simi off her feet, yet seems to be missing in situations where he should be there, like heist meetings, and for what
? I liked this book more than I expected and might pick up the sequel.
