While I absolutely flew through this one, which means I usually give it at least 4 stars, I was left disappointed on a few things in the end. 

I loved the setting - a little island set off of Sandusky in Lake Erie? We don’t see books set in the Northern Ohio area often. So that was really nice to see. 

I found that the relationship didn’t have much chemistry that we got to see on the page in the build up the relationship. If a slow burn is going to impress me, I need there to be chemistry and deep conversations for growth for both the relationship and the people in it. 

Additionally, the sister, who was the focus of the first book, and her boyfriend and their story was mentioned several times in this one. I think that the time wasted on repeating the same info on them could’ve been spent on Rachel and Mason. 

Also, the part three conflict was completely predictable if you had been catching the slight hints even super early on. Dropping those hints but not getting the characters to acknowledge it in anyway doesn’t seem feasible to me. 

Will I be reading book one in the series, Float Plan? Probably not because I basically got the whole gist of that one explained multiple times in The Suite Spot.
