I liked the idea of this book, but didn't love the execution.

📖 𝗦𝘆𝗻𝗼𝗽𝘀𝗶𝘀: Lexi is an aspiring chef married to her job when she meets Jake, an up-and-coming country singer. One weekend changes their lives, but they lose touch until Jake returns to New York looking to reunite.

🌟 𝗥𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄: The cover and the synopsis all seemed right up my alley, but the way the plot paced really wasn't my jam.

This was one of those books that was perfectly fine - but when I really thought about it, didn't deliver. The idea of it was great - rockstar heart throb who is reckless and fun, a serious chef who falls hard and fast. But there was a LOT of back-and-forth. It seemed like every kiss or moment was met with a "but we can't work" argument, which was so often I started speeding through them. 

There were pieces that didn't get enough attention - Jake's Broadway aspirations, Lexi's feelings about her dad - and pieces that got way too much attention. It just didn't seem cohesive, and left me feeling... well, not a lot. I'm a little bummed, because I really thought I would enjoy this one.

𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴: 3/5 ⭐⭐⭐
