Loved the writing style and spice. The characters were sweet and I could relate to a lot of their experiences. I love a grumpy sunshine. The tension was written really well. It was a lighthearted easy-read. No big plot twists or massive hurdles but I still really enjoyed it. I will read the next one which I imagine is Hazel and Rory’s book. Also, the way that Jamie described Pippa throughout, but especially towards the end of the book, was everything!

Jamie Streicher’s forearms could get a woman pregnant. I’m staring.
Her singing on the couch makes this apartment feel like a home.
I have feelings for the pretty songbird, and I’m tired of telling myself no.
