Get Lost with You by Sophie Sullivan

4.0

Please note that I received this book via NetGalley. This did not affect my rating or review.

Here's the thing, I had zero idea this was second in a series. That's the main issue when you obtain books via NetGalley. If the book description isn't posted somewhere, it's hard to tell if it's a series. So I was lost for a good portion of this book when characters and events were referenced that I, the readers should know about. That said. I thought this was a very solid romance. I liked it because there was no easy answer to the things that Jillian and Levi were dealing with. But, I thought that there was a huge plot hole left open due to Jillian's past that I would have loved to see addressed, and I didn't really believe the 11th hour change up with Levi's father.

"Get Lost With You" is the second book in Sullivan's "Rock Bottom Love" series. This book follows divorced single mother, Jillian Keller. Jillian returned to work at her parent's lodge after her divorce and the actions of her ex had her returning to Smile. Jillian has been single for years and has no intention of getting involved with someone again, until her childhood crush Levi Bright returns. Levi returns to help his father's struggling business, but also to start a business in the food industry he knows and loves. Jillian fights against her attraction to Levi, and Levi goes full steam ahead for Jillian.

The characters of Jillian and Levi work and I like that they were actually doing well with communicating with each other for 3/4 of the book. There's a random change-up that didn't even make sense that I had a hard time believing. And Jillian's reactions to her parents needs/dreams didn't ring true for someone her age at all. I won't lie, that got on my nerves after a while. And Levi's family was a mess that I didn't think was ever really addressed in the book.

The book is also setting up one of the brothers to be the focus on the next novel in this series, which was fine.

The ending, there's a definite HEA, but at times it felt a bit rushed.
