by Jenny Proctor
emotional

No
thank you to net galley and the publisher for an arc :)
I liked this! it was sweet, had good pacing, and the third act conflict made sense to me. my two critiques are that I don't think summer's character was as fleshed out as it could have been (like sometimes she was a pushover and sometimes she was super strong-willed. where's the consistency?), and sometimes the writing was a tad cringe. This is an arc tho, so maybe some of those lines will get fixed. A line I did really hate though was when Nathan's brother told him to get a wife before he got fat and ugly. That made me super uncomfortable, and it felt kinda icky. Not a bad book, though. The first 75% especially was really strong.
