I enjoyed this one more than the last one. It got very good just before the half way point and I enjoyed the story from there. Declan Kane is a very attractive man ;))

I did quite like The Fine Print, but I wasn't in love with it, however I liked the teasing of this couple in that book and was curious so I picked it up. I'm so glad I did because I really enjoyed this book, and definitely think it is WAY better than book one. It was just a really quick, and addictive read. The page count is quite large (for a romance at least) but I still managed to read this in one day, because I just couldn't put this one down.
The characters were also just really engaging. Declan and Iris were really interesting characters. They were not the most unique, if you've read a grumpyxsunshine billionaire romance before, you've read these characters before, but I do think Lauren Asher did a great job at fleshing out these characters and making them feel like real people, but also having them have great growth throughout the novel.
However, this book shines most in the romance departement. The dynamic between Iris and Declan was just everything to me. Prior to the start of this novel they have known each other for quite some time now, and they just know each other really well. Their dynamic was just really great, and I loved seeing it develop throughout the book to be more of a relationship. Seeing them slowly develop feelings for each other, or realise they have feelings for each other was just so much fun. I just really loved them together.
So yeah, I was having a great time, and then the third act conflict happened, and it was just terrible. I don't know. I really didn't like it. I was starting to get extremely dissapointed in the book because of it. However, the resolution of it was just top notch. I think it's one of my favourite resolutions of the third act conflict in a romance book I've read. I feel like even though the conflict was really stupid the resolution just made their relationship so much stronger, so I can't fully complain about it either. So yeah, I did really enjoy this book even if I didn't absolutely love it in the end. I'm extremely excited to read the next book in this series as well though.

Was a great addition to the first book! I really like when authors have series that are focused around different family members. This was was just as good or even better than the first, with a new perspective on Dreamland.
