Island Affair

I think I am struggling with romance without any other plot line and the fake boyfriend trope is REALLY not one of my favorites so I really struggled with this one. It was a strong okay, with a very predictable fight and ending.

Also, the way such a light hearted book tried to tackle some harder and deeper issues left much of those issues unexplored and lacking in depth. If you're gonna do that, just commit and go all out but it all just felt very surface level.

I wanted to read this book because it's set in Key West. I hope to go there after this season ends.

But I could not get more than a few chapters in. I know the author needed to get up the rest of the book, but it happened so fast. Like this random hot firefighter is going to fall into an influencer's plan to post as her boyfriend when the real guy flakes out on her.

And the instant attraction. Ok, yeah, I know it's fiction, but I guess I like it to be more believable. Maybe it's my cynicism coming out haha.

This was a did not finish (DNF).
