I've loved everything Rochelle has ever written, so when she offered ARCs of her latest book I jumped at the chance to read it.
Alina is focused on her future and refuses to let anything derail her plans...until she meets Jude while on vacation in St. Croix. Her romance is farther complicated by the fact she came to St. Croix with her best friend (with benefits) Theo. Rochelle carefully navigates both the relationship between Alina and Theo, and Alina and Jude. She doesn't make Alina the bad guy for falling in love with Jude, and you can understand Alina's feelings for both men. And as always, Rochelle makes you feel every emotion along with the characters. She has such a vivid way of writing you can't help but be swept up in the story.
I can't wait to read the next part of the story, and to spend more time on St. Croix with Aline, Jude, and their wonderful cast of supporting characters.

A lovely, sweet story. I love Rochelle's writing. I was invested in the story, in the characters, I could relate to who they are and what they're going through.
