I realllllly wanted to love this more. Like realllllly wanted to. It wasn't a bad book just wasn't as good as I thought. I am definitely an exception to this as everyone else think it is wonderful. It was our holiday book club pick and just about everyone thought it was exceptional so I am definitely in the minority. I just felt like the first half of the book was really slow and I felt like there wasn't much action happening. I like the trope fake dating so that got me super excited and then when it was with her best friend - sign me up! The second half is really where this book came alive. I love how the relationship between Luka and Stella grew as a couple. I got really frustrated with Stella (along with the other ladies in my book club) because she just couldn't get it in her head that their relationship should be real even after countless times Luka proved otherwise. One area where BK soared was the intimate times between Luka and Stella. I thought they were written beautifully. 

I'm very anxious to see how the 2nd book is taking on Beckett and Evelyn's story. I tend to not read the descriptions prior to picking up the book so I'm hoping we get a backstory as well as present day them.
