See reviews first on my blog
Told in multiple perspectives each chapter we get to see Drew, Seneca and Claire and how their lives were before they arrived at the resort and how they are now in the present as well and what has brought each of them together at the resort.
With each girl having their own problems and ulterior motives for being there at first they don’t see eye to eye on anything. But as they each get to know more about one another and what brought them there as well as which boy they like. We start to see not only how similar they are, but how in working together they help one another get past what’s been holding them back and start looking towards the future.
They also learn that they don’t have to try to do everything alone and act like they are invincible all the time in order to try and get over what happened in the past.
Overall I thought this book was okay. For me sadly it did end up falling kind of flat because for the first half of the book the three characters don’t want anything to really do with each other and spend most of the time avoiding the others.
The part that made me not really enjoy this read is that it become predictable and seemed fairly rushed even though each of the girls had a good back story. I feel like this is one of those books that should have been put into individual ones where each book focus on a different girl, so that we could actually see things more clearly and not feel so stereotyped.
If you want a quick okay summery type of read then this is a good choice.
