I want to talk to whomever decided the age gap part of this was okay. I love an age gap romance, but not when the feelings start when she's 16 and he's 24. I have no idea how that got past so many people and managed to get published so recently. Why couldn't the feelings have started when Remi was 24? I really don't understand why she needed to be underage when they start "falling in love." I also found it disturbing that everyone in town seems to know that Remi and Brick had "feelings" for each other when she was underage and...no one does anything about it. Whenever I managed to forget the age gap issue, the novel would bring it up again for reasons I don't understand.

Besides the inappropriate relationship beginnings, I found some of the main plot to be a bit repetitive and sometimes it developed too slowly. I enjoyed Remi and Brick falling in love AS ADULTS, but really don't understand why Score started their "relationship" where she does.

Brick's marriage to Remi's best friend also felt trite and unnecessary.

With more editing, this could have been a solid book.

I enjoyed the beginning, the middle was too long, repetitive, and boring, and the ending was interesting but what I expected. I liked the storyline and all the characters, flaws, and all. However, I more than likely will never reread it.

3.5

Really great story with a mixture of romance and mystery/thriller. A slight slow burn but about 3/4 way through the book it begins to feel too far removed from the plot as it focuses heavily on the spice.
A lot of repetitive words & phrases.
I loved this book with the murderous spin to a romance novel but could have done with a little less spice.

Lucy Score sure knows how to write 'em 💕

This book has all of Lucy's best qualities. Lovable main characters, a perfectly grumpy MMC, feisty FMC, a hint of suspense, a great dose of pining, and hotttttt spice.

I would have adored a post-wedding epilogue with a preview of a growing Callan family, but the epilogue of the pool scene was a true gift 😋
