I found this book good overall! The writing was captivating although occasionally too vague. The characters were loveable and drew you in. I read it in about 8 hours and was satisfied with the ending. 

My only two qualms are that the main romantic relationship progressed incredibly fast and it was very sexually explicit. Granted I love Hallmarks so I can’t be too critical of the pace of the relationship, but it was a little unrealistic. I’m also not a huge fan of overtly sexually explicit content and prefer eluding to it instead. Just my opinion.
