I fell in love w/ Julie Olivia from reading Off The Hook, and after reading this series I can see why I like that one so much better, haha - these were still okay, just not nearly as well written.

I’m so glad Ian was so great because Nia was like, the worst. She was so insanely judgy I can’t even believe it. The miscommunication trope is the absolute worst and coupled with Nia being presumptive and close minded made it worse. I found myself rolling my eyes and getting so annoyed with her. Literally everyone else in this cast of characters is amazing. Even Goat Man is better than Nia. All the stars for Ian and negative stars for Nia who needs to calm down and stop assuming the absolute worst in everyone.

I saw a video online that said if you're looking for some dirty talk in your book with a hot lead then this would be the book for you. But instead I got this book which was exactly, the opposite. Any scenes with dirty talk were short, far between and very much, not that dirty.
The two main characters were boring, over dramatic and lacked communication that made everything so much more frustrating than it needed to be. They acted like school children instead of grown adults.
The only characters I really liked were Nia's family, who, although constructed as 'crazy' were actually the normal ones in the bunch. Harry, oh my, yes. And Grant, although, coming with a lot of issues, was someone you rooted for more than the main characters.
The writing was a little immature, lacking any substance and was filled with a whole bunch of filler chapters that could have been left out.

Okay, I have to start by saying, I loved Ian and Nia’s friendship/enemieship since book 1, I loved most of there journey back to friends and then lovers in this book but I will say, there was some immaturity on Ian’s part. But once that faded he wasn’t so bad.

this book was fun. ian and nia were both likable characters, and i really liked the slow burn between them. i also surprisingly liked the flashbacks over the course of the book. it kind of gave them more of a depth, ya know?
the only thing missing from this book is more or less a general direction it was going. as said before, i liked the flashback and the depth it gave them, but on nia's case i don't see how it had anything to do with the story. it was kind of odd to say the least.
BUT the banter was fun, the steam was just right, and the characters were great. all in all, this was just as enjoyable as book 1.
