Read this book in pretty much two sittings, and I absolutely LOVED it ❤️❤️ everything was perfect. I was immediately hooked and never felt like there was a dull moment or lost interest. The ending was everything I needed between

Spoiler

Nate and Bronwyn in the epilogue, Addy and Cooper finding themselves, and the shocking yet not too far fetched truth about Simon’s death

. Overall LOVE LOVE LOVE PLEASE READ 🙏🏻

I honestly enjoyed reading the book, nothing too serious, this might a new genre for me anytime I'm in the mood for a quick read! I did like the change of perspective and the character development, in the beginning I was expecting everything to fall flat, but that didn't happen.

An easy read and a fun mystery. The ending was satisfying, although I hate Nate the rest of the characters are good. Exactly the kind of book I was looking for.

i love how the main four characters are supposed to be these 1 dimensional characters & super cliché but by the end of the book, they have personalities & have grown out of the cliché.
