The book was good in my opinion I loved the beginning and how Russ and Aurora talked it out and became friends who have strong feelings for each other but didn’t want to say anything but during the middle I kinda got bored of the book until the end where Russ’s dad confronts him at camp to tell him that he is going to get better at his gambling addiction after Russ told him off in his hospital bed to get better. I hate Ethan for what he had done to Russ not once but twice like dude what the fuck and he was high out of his mind during the third confrontation when Russ’ dad got better which yeah you want them to talk but that’s not way to do it. I loved seeing Rory stand up for herself as well I just loved seeing their issues being solved and her letting go trying to get her dad’s attention. The romance was ADORABLE. It’s rare to see a guy blushing near a confident girl in books (please recommend some thank you) and this was excellent for me. But the whole “no fraternization” rule makes no sense since Jenna didn’t even enforce it when the two got caught but it’s whatever I guess. Also the comedy in this book is top tier I loved it and laughed every time a toilet was mentioned and how Clay was shocked that Rory and Russ were together was so satisfying I laughed so hard.

Now onto the sex scenes. At the beginning I didn’t like the first scene since it was kinda awkward and cringe HOWEVER the rest were more steamy and a huge improvement. The first time they did it at summer camp I was giggling so hard I couldn’t put the book down. I’ve read stories where the man is obsessed with the girl but it’s so different when it’s a soft man obsessed with a confident girl. And plus Russ looking for Rory during the storm knowing she’s afraid. SCANDALOUS! I loved it!!

I would recommend it to people. There’s times the author wrote something that I had to reread five or more times and I still didn’t understand but it’s not a book to make you think it’s a book to make you feel good. And it did just that. Excellent read!!!
