Read it. Liked it. Not my favorite.
Before you grab your pitchforks, that does not mean I didn't enjoy this book. I did, actually.
Or that it wasn't good. It was. It's just that there are different levels of 'good'. For me, this book wasn't exceptionally good (4 stars) or mind-blowingly good (5 stars). Just another good romance.
It is well-written and the characters are interesting and likable. The story is good, too. Sure, there were parts I liked less, but the overall impression was good.
I love how the author incorporated the past chapters into the book. Usually I'm not a fan of past and present storylines, but it didn't bother me here. The past chapters were short and to the point without detracting from the unfolding plot.
I loved the first half of the book. It was funny, hot and refreshing. I loved the characters and their banter. Unfortunately, I started to lose interest in the second part. The story seemed to lose its intrigue, charm and spark. And I got bored (but not to the point where I wanted to quit reading).
Overall, a good read which didn't quite reach its full potential. Worth reading but not memorable enough.

Thanks, Jessica! I'm really enjoying it :)
I think I've read too many romances, they are all starting to feel similar. Thanks for your kind words. BTW, I love your honest reviews too :)
Thanks, Sophie! xx
Thanks, Dilek. Sorry you had the same problem. The beginning was fun but overall I think the book lacked some more depth.
Thanks, sweetie! It was an enjoyable read. Hope you'll enjoy it too :) xx
Thanks so much, Teja. Hope it picks up for you though :)
Thanks, Jessica. I'm in the minority so I think you shouldn't worry. I hope you'll love it :)
