I loved the characters, especially little Cami, and I loved how the second chance, friends to lovers bit was done. I thought it was a really nice way to wrap up the Dreamland Billionaires trilogy. That being said, there were things that bugged me. There were several bits that were mentioned or alluded to that were never talked about or explained. If you’re not going to explain them, what’s the point? And there were others that just didn’t seem to add anything to the story. Like Lana wanting to own her own sweet shop. I get having the love of baking, but what does her dream of owning a sweets shop do for the story? That could’ve been omitted and the story would’ve stayed the same. The addition of these unnecessary factoids here and there also made the book longer than it needed to be. Don’t get me wrong, I gobbled that shit up. But it could’ve been 100 pages less.
