I was hooked at the beginning, but that’s what Jessa Hastings’s writer does to you—it sucks you in from the very beginning and doesn’t release you until the story is over. 

Overall, I enjoyed reading this. I would say about 80% of the book was very engaging and the plot was really good. The last 20% however, fell flat for me. I’m somewhat conflicted about their decision to not be honest with the mom about the dad’s secret life. I understand both sides, but I don’t know if it was the right decision based on their family dynamics to begin with. I also thought the ending just felt anticlimactic. After the will was fully explained, it’s like the story just ended and didn’t close several of the points of conflict: Georgia and Oliver. Georgia and her mom. Her mom and Oliver. There didn’t seem to be any real consequences for what Maryanne allowed to happen to Georgia and the Beckett situation. 

It seems like there should be more of the book or at least a part two…

Also, bonus points for the Magnolia Parks crossover with Julian and Henry. 

This was just okay. At times, both Sybil and Kieran were annoying. I seriously don’t understand how Sybil would think it would be okay to offer money for Kieran’s deferment to his medical program and not think it would be considered a bribe or an issue. It’s one thing for her character to have no motivation or responsibility for most of the book, but that was just an incredibly stupid thing to do and didn’t seem realistic.

“Thanks so much to @berkleypub @berkleyromance or @acebookspub for the free book!” 

Miles and Ella were great characters and I loved reading their love story! 

The cover of the book caught me right way because am I the only one who thinks it looks like THE Mya on the cover?! 

At any rate, Miles and Ella were made for each other. I wanted to read more about their HEA, which would be my only dislike of the book feeling like it ended kind of abruptly. 

I hope there is a Jamie and Gabriel story!
