I always appreciate a clean romance, and this certainly was that. There was lots of focus on the relationship and the sweet moments. I like that the hero wasn't super rick or super successful. He was just a guy and that was enough. I enjoyed the heroine's growing experience as she got used to controlling her own life and calling the shots. This is the first of Shannon's books that I've read and it was clear that I had missed a lot of different stories because of all the characters involved. I'll probably go back to the beginning and see how I like the first books.However, the writing felt a little sparse and lacked depth. The shocking events that happen rarely have any fallout afterwards. For the dangerous situation that the girls are in, they seem really unconcerned. The girls relationships with each other also felt more like teenagers than adults.Nit pick: When addressing someone, you must have a comma before the name. "What are you doing, Sally?" "You're crazy, Peter." The characters address each other by their names A LOT in this book, and not once was there a comma before the name. I was a little shocked to realize this wasn't a debut novel because of that fact. It's a rookie mistake, and a big one.
