The more I read Wiggs the more I realize it's just the same theme and story written slightly different. But it's still quite entertaining.

I loved Connor and Olivia's story but I had a harder time feeling celebratory with her grandparents anniversary party. Mostly it was because I read Jane and Charless story and I have some issues with Janes huge gigantic lie. The plotline with Daisy I had to skim read since I read some of it already in the later books (I believe parts are written the same word for word).

Connor and Olivia were great characters. Connor was tough on the outside but very caring and giving on the inside. He was typical co-dependent and a huge caretaker. Olivia had insecurities due to growing up overweight and having to remake herself in her own image and not her parents. It bothered a bit that Olivia kind of looked down on Connor and he was okay with it. Not once was he angry that she assumed he wasnt knowledgeable, successful, or smart.

It was a decent read. It would have been better if I havent read so many of Wiggs books already.
