I'm going to give this 4 stars! Does it deserve it? Probably not. But I'm sick, I needed something fluffy, and I read this in one sitting. (Truthfully it's like 3.5)

Frederick is adorable.  His friendship/ hatred of Reggie was so much fun.  I loved Reggies pranks and poking fun at his crush.  I was giggling throughout the book and while there was only 1 spicy scene I think it was well done.  Cassie was fine. The story was in her POV but she wasn't as interesting in comparison to the vampires. The ending kinda came out of nowhere, I just wish we had more of that and it wasn't resolved so quickly. 

Overall, this book may not win any prestigious awards but I don't care.  I had a great time start to finish.

Wow. Wow. Wow. This book. I think every woman at some point in her life has said “if we are still single when we’re X AGE, we should get married?” Maggie Vine is just like us and made that vow to get married at 35. the catch? She made it with two different people, at two very different stages of her life.

At 35 Maggie's life is not where she wanted it to be. She is an aspiring singer and wants to be a mother. Maggie is an incredible character. She feels so honest and real. She is talented, strong, and a good friend, but she is also beautifully flawed. This story has a prominent love triangle, but more than being about the two men Garrett & Asher, it was a triangle between Maggie and the future she wants and the future she envisioned. 

The story follows Maggie's current timeline at age 35, but also flashes back to her first chances at love with Asher & Garrett. I loved watching everything unfold, watching Maggie grow, choose who is right for her, choose herself and stand up for herself. I don't want to spoil anything, but I do just need to praise the women in this book, who are all going through their own issues, but are a loving support system and encourage each other to champion their own conflicts. 

The book I thought I was reading from the description & the book I read felt a little disconnected. This book was so much more. This was more than just what we have come to expect from romance (especially a love triangle) and I enjoyed every minute.
