Review:
This is a great story. I really enjoyed it.
It is not just a regular contemporary romance story. It is interesting, fun, flirty, warm, and engaging.
Aside from the main plot, involving Frankie’s struggle to overcome her husbands need for a break, there are several subplots involving her two best friends that will keep you captivated until the very last page.
This story is about acceptance, friendship, confidence, fulfillment, and true love.
It is very well written. The story is warm, smart, and laugh-out-loud funny. And the characters are quirky, witty, and lovable.
This is an easy, light-hearted, perfect summer read that you won’t want to put down. Don’t miss it. It’s great!
This book is due to be published on June 1, 2016.
Thank you to NetGalley, especially Aria, for providing me with a copy in an exchange for an honest review.
