Quick Thoughts
1. You can tell this was Colleen first book for sure. It just wasn't quite as good as her other books. You can tell she's improved a lot though!
2. My one big problem with this book was the mother and how she was completely for the insta-love that was happening. Like she was saying stuff like they were meant to be and they had only been on one date! It was really awkward for me.
3. I adored the little brothers in this book and how they immediately became best friends. It was adorable and more friendships need to be like theirs.
4. I also had a little bit of an issue with the two situations that the main characters were going through with their families. I don't want to spoil it but it just didn't work for me.
5. Not a bad book but I think I'd recommend to skip over this one.
