I think this might be my favorite in the series? I really enjoyed this dynamic and I appreciate that neither of them quit their jobs prematurely to be with together and instead had to figure out how to make long distance work. I also appreciate that jet acknowledges how much Matt is to thank for his success and support.
I am annoyed that this book told us about big events for other couples. I get that it's the penultimate of the series and things need to be wrapped up but it was very very frustrating to learn that Matt and Jett's younger brother Wade had come to live with Matt and Noah who became his guardians. That's information I wish we had gotten in Matt and Noah's book because I'm intrigued by how it all worked out and what Wde is like as a character. Another big thing that we get told but never shown is that two of the couples decide not to get married and one of them has a big proposal scene but don't go through with it. This feels like a fairly large character development moment that I wish we had seen in that couple's book.
I also confused by the characterization of Harley as a side character. I listened to Popstar by Eden Finley first which is Harley's book and I didn't know that there was any sort of connection to this series. In this book, he's characterized as a little bit more difficult and more like an unhealthy partner than he is in Popstar. It was very confusing bc in Popstar he isn't like that at all.
