Jane's new business venture is not doing to great so she enlists the help of Jasper while hoping she doesn't fall in love with him. While there were parts that I found cute I just felt a big disconnect with Jane and some plot lines and it made it hard to really enjoy the overall story.

I felt no connection to Jane. If I'm being honest, she annoyed me. The way she was all into being a matchmaker, she was extremely judgemental and I'm still wondering why she treated Jasper the way that she did in the beginning. She was mean and rude for no reason. Also the whole thing with the ex coming back into the picture was a lot and completely unnecessary. 

I really liked Jasper, he's really misunderstood but such a sweetheart. I like how determined he was to woo Jane and didn't give up. I loved the support he had from his family. I liked the interactions we got of him and Londyn but it felt forced at times and there just wasn't enough interactions to make me believe they were the best of friends after pretty much the first time meeting. 

This just fell flat for me quite a bit. There were parts that seemed rushed when they shouldn't have been and then there were parts that didn't have enough follow through. Also this is just a me thing but ummm what's with the cover not matching the description of Jasper. Now I get it won't always be 100% but this one.....this cover made my eye twitch with the lack of likeness to the description of the character.
