Spicy grumpy sunshine age gap summer holiday romance with some murder mystery sprinkled in. 

I definitely unestimated the amount of spice that would be in this book. I really enjoyed the overall writing and characters, especially how genuinely well developed and written they were. Throughout most of the middle it sorta just turned in to a smutfest (which isn’t the reason I picked this book up) instead of focusing on the murder mystery plot. 
However, when the plot picked up near the end and Myles and Taylor accepted their feelings for eachother as well as the resolving murder mystery, I loved it!! 
I really loved the ending and their overall relationship dynamic. In general I do wish we got more of an explanation on Jude’s subplot and also less spice bc at times it really didn’t add anything to the plot. Overall i still enjoyed it.

Was this book as groundbreaking as some of the reviews led me to believe? No. Was it even good? Debatable. 

It did however give me everything I needed from it, and it was a one day read that got me out of a slump.

Some phrasing was mildly cheesy but overall cute mystery/romance and I loved it.
