Though not my favourite book by Meghan Quinn, I did enjoy some parts, especially the banter between the two characters. Though the physical chemistry was there, I didn't really feel the emotional connection between Hayes and Hattie.
Honestly, I didn't really love any of the characters except for Hattie's best friend. Hattie was pretty immature, yes I know she is grieving, but she seems to just give up. She keeps going after Hayes even when he tells her it's not going to happen, then gets mad when he turns her down. He made his position pretty damn clear.
Hayes
I get that Hattie's family is grieving, but her siblings were kind of assholes to her on the beginning for no reason. They kind of redeemed themselves in the end, but they were still jerks for most of the book.
Though the ending was abrupt, I thought the Epilogue was cute.
