Thank you to the publisher for a free Netgalley. 

After loving this author's previous Christmas book, I was in for this one. Loved the premise and the scavenger hunts. Though a heavier Christmas book, I loved that we are watching two characters deal with the loss of a brother/best friend because that part was well done.

But other than their shared grief, Cassie could be one of the most annoying characters. Cassie acts like a small child, constantly walking away when she does not like what she hears. She constantly belittles Sam's behavior while acting worse than he is. Every time Sam would try to speak to her, she would cut him off and run away. Exhausting. The time jumps were fine, but there were many of them. 

Though I enjoy the plot Stone has come up with here, I struggled to get past the annoying habits of our main character. I saw little character development.
