MY REVIEW:
This book is a sweet and light read
that tugs at heart strings. Mia was Ben Kelly’s younger sister Tessa’s
bestfriend. They were mortal nemesis when they were kids and were set to hate
each other forever. Mia had to leave town at some point until years later, she
was convinced by her aunt that she should spend a longer summer with Tessa. On
her way to Tessa’s, she met a hot and sweet stranger and decided to give him
her virginity on a supposed one night stand as a sign of her quest towards a
fun life. That one-night stand turned out to be "nine-inch amazing"
and Mia will forever remember that night with him. But there was a problem. The
stranger was named Ben Kelly.
Individually, Mia and Ben are interesting characters. Mia was an epitome of a good girl. She’s serious in life and takes care of her dying mother religiously, causing her to neglect her own happiness. Ben, on the other hand, was a hot cop who had his share of fun and wild in his life. Together, they spark two of my favourite kinds of couples in a romance novel—bad boy meets good girl and enemies turned lovers. Whether they hated and loved each other, I enjoyed the intensity of Ben and Mia’s connection. Even when they were sparring with words, I totally felt the spark between them. There was just this certain assurance and an unspoken love that was exclusive between the two of them. I praise the writer’s ability to sustain and even escalate that spark until the end of the book!
In all honesty, there was little intrigue at the start of the story because it was quite a predictable circumstance (I kinda saw it coming that the one night stand would be Ben). However, as the story progresses into a sweet, easygoing rhythm, I found myself thoroughly enjoying. The secondary characters are also fun and interesting! Miss Daniels certainly know how to keep the readers interested and anticipating the stories of the other characters. Tessa is Mia's best friend and Ben's younger sister. She's an honest and happy-go-lucky girl whose in a complicated love-hate relationship with hot cop/ Ben's best friend Luke whose a total douche until Tessa rattled more than his body. Reed, a character I am definitely excited in meeting, is a playboy but is a really great and caring friends. And just when I thought I couldn’t get more hooked, Little Sir Nolan appeared on the scene. I have a softness towards kids in stories and I definitely liked him!
The spark between Ben and Mia wasn't immediately felt but it progressed into a sweet dance of courtship until it reached a deeper point of love. It wasn't a mind-blowing read but it's definitely romantic and captivating. It's a fast-paced light read that will awaken tender emotions of familial love, friendship, acceptance, and a whole lot of romance.
