3.75 stars lol

This was a strange book for me. I liked Hollis and I liked Mia, but I felt there was a bit of a disconnect. I felt their ages, 25 and 22/23 respectively wasn’t how their characters, and situation, read. It felt more of a new adult (late teens, very early 20’s) feel, rather than this is straight contemporary. Further to that, I felt the sex and the kink (not much, don’t stress) didn’t fit with the characters either.
I was also a bit confused with the Hayes thing at the end. The bonus POV goes a way to explaining, but it still feels weird. I also would’ve liked to have seen a proper reconciliation.
I haven’t read the other willow creek books, so there was a tiny disconnect there too, and the addition of the Wentworth’s was too “incestuous” for me.

Still, it was an okay rockstar book, if a bit disconnected.
