Loved this even more than the first one! It’s so swoony and Xavier is such a fab lead - sweet and sensitive and someone who has grown and changed since high school. I loved the second chance vibes in this too - felt realistic for sure. And Violet with her inability to slow down also felt realistic. 

Kristina created such a fun family here too, and great side characters in Karina and Angel and Alex and Iris and Lily. The small town drama also got me giggling. 

Read this if you like: only one bed, second chance, characters who are living lives with fun careers, messy small towns, messy families, messy heroines who hate being vulnerable. Absolutely loved this one!
