Thanks to NetGalley and all for an ARC for an honest review.
This is a cute clean friends to love romance.  There are many underlying themes.. new friends, community, found family, trust, emotional abuse.. but remains a light read.  
This was the third and last in a series.  It was a little heavy on referencing the other storylines which may be nostalgic if you've read the others but I had not.  
Problems I had: there was a investment that isn't good in one situation but is good in another..?  Also, there was a lawsuit that was left unresolved..?

This is a sweet story of friends discovering their love for each other.  While the relationship is cute there isn't much else going on for plot to keep the reader interested.  There a a couple side plots but they are underdeveloped and quickly resolved.  Unfortunately this fell flat for me.

Thanks to NetGalley and all for an ARC copy in return for an honest review.
This was a very cute and funny story about all different kinds of love.. family, friends, unrequited, love at first sight, love that grows slowly and new love.  It's an interesting story the whole time with many comical scenes, my favorite being with Louie the lobster!
