Review

I did start this book with a little trepidation as I was sure I was going to like Avary all that much, she came across as a bit of a spoilt party princess in Meet Me at Midnight, but I was pleasantly surprised at her depths as this story progressed. Does she still have some shallowness yes, but deep down she is just a bit misunderstood and has been playing the part of someone she things people want her to be.  

This all comes crashing down she finds herself stranded on an island with Henry her brother’s lifelong best friend, who Avary has always had a soft spot for. Soon secrets and long held feelings start coming to the surface.   

The storyline of the book was interesting and a bit different and I did enjoy that, there is one particular trope that I’m not huge fan off, but it didn’t diminish my enjoyment of the story.  

So, in summary, was this my favourite Max Monroe book, no but it was the perfect brain break and it took me out of my head during a time an anxious time for me and so for that it did its job perfectly. It’s fun heartwarming and the ending is feel good – a classic rom-com that I will always pick up.

My Rating: 4/5 🌟🌟🌟🌟
