Mixed Signals (Lovelight, #3)

3.5 stars rounding up bc Caleb was so sweet. (Also bc she mentioned the best novella to ever grace spanish television "Corazon Salvaje") If you know, you know!
Third book in the series, this book follows Layla and Caleb. She is the owner of the bake shop at Lovelight who is been on an awful dating streak and Caleb who is a substitute teacher and also has bad luck with dating and has been crushing on Layla for a while. They come up with an "arrangement" to date each other so they can figure out what they are doing wrong.
It was cute enough, but I just felt like it was pretty much a copy of the two previous books. It follows the same kind of book formula the other two did and it felt a little stale. Again, there was another 3rd act nonsense that happened and this is the third time in a row now that this writer chooses this direction and it's lacking imagination. I actually really do like her writing style and I feel she could do better with the plotting of these stories.
That being said, I still like the small town background and it was really funny at times. Caleb was so sweet (maybe too sweet) and I loved the all the cameos by the previous couples.

I LOVE all you girlies so damn much!!! 😂💙💙💙 You just get it! WHY?!! Just why with the third act BS?! At least if you have to do it make it make sense! Love you all babes, you make my day brighter! 🥰🥰🥰
Thank you gorgeous! Yes! You nailed it, she definitely is sticking to a certain construction but I wish she would change it up bc I do like the "bones" of her books but it's getting way too predictable, even for a contemp romance! This one is still cute tho and a sweet comfort book for when you just need that! Happy reading my lovely!! 💙💙💙
Back at you QUEEN!!!!! 🥰🥰🥰
I know!! Just please stop! But..... I also will keep reading! 😂😂😂
Right?! 😂 I still enjoyed it too but I hope the last one mixes it up!😂
