I liked this well enough, although it's not like, a new favorite. I liked the character of Lena, and the side characters that made up her family and friends. I also thought she and Max had fun chemistry and flirty moments. I will say that I began to lose interest in the second half a little, although I can't really pinpoint why that is. I also thought the conflict towards the end of the book felt a little manufactured and contrived, and the last couple scenes between Lena and Max are SUPER CORNY imo.
For people looking for steamy scenes, this takes a bit to get there, but they pretty much go from no physical interaction to multiple raunchy sex scenes one after another, so the pacing is a little weird there.

All in all, this was a quick read and I would read something from the author in the future.
