***4 Stars***
Danni-Rose is a force of nature and she and I had an interesting time of it. She loves hard and fierce, has a lot of moxie and can be an immovable wall when she wants to be and I loved that about her, but it was that wall that had me getting frustrated with her. I understood it, I empathized with her ~ hell I even got teary over it ~ but it was definitely a thing that she needed to come to terms with in order to truly live.
Benson was such a good guy. I really, really liked him. He truly enjoyed his life because he got to do something he was not only good at, but loved as his profession. He was sweet, flirty and though confident and at times cocky, he wasn’t a jerk and proved time and again what a good heart he had.
Benson and Danni-Rose relationship does progress quickly, but I was okay with it. They had something of a time limit as to how long Benson would be in town and they packed in a lot in that time limit. But the chemistry between them was there and I really liked them together ~ at least when Danni would let herself simply be in the moment with Benson. For such a short time frame there was a lot of emotional upheaval going on, they skimmed over the small, superficial things and pretty much went down the emotional rabbit hole in no time flat and that’s why everything worked for me. Of course, there were a few twists thrown in that I did not see coming, but they worked and I liked where everything was in the end.
This is the authors debut novel and I really enjoyed it. The writing was engaging, pacing was good and I enjoyed the dual 1st person POV. And as you all know I’m a sucker for well written secondary characters and this book is chalk full of them. From Beau to Liza and even Jess, I really liked them all and wouldn’t have minded spending a lot more time with them. If you’re looking for a quick read that will have you grinning and probably reaching for a tissue or two, then I’d definitely recommend giving this one a go!
