3.0

I read this to escape Honeybee and then was disappointed by this book’s easily resolved plot lines? It’s literally a romance.

But if we ignore all that, why only 3 stars? Maybe I’m cynical, but it seemed just a little too convenient.

The man that a lady you met in a bathroom wants you to marry is handsome, fit, smart, gorgeous, successful, rich, caring, smoking hot, obsessed with you and did we mention attractive? Of course it only takes one summer to fall in love. Especially when you’re also beautiful, gorgeous, smoking hot and did we mention attractive? (Yeah also hardworking and loving etc) I think I’m just sick of pretty, young people falling in love.
