Thank you, Marilyn Conner Miles, for sending me an ARC of this story for an honest review.
Brenda goes to a friend���s wedding and runs into her ex-boyfriend. Blake broke up with her six years ago and she has pined for him ever since. He pursues her and she doesn���t understand why since she thought he wanted nothing to do with her. Even Blake doesn���t know why he keeps contacting her after he ignored her for so long���he just feels compelled to be with her again.
Although well-written in third person POV, I had trouble connecting with the characters. Miscommunications played a major role in the book since they didn���t talk about their feelings or why their relationship ended until after they started to date again. Some of their actions just seemed childish to me.
Anyway, I loved the scenery descriptions. I���ve always wanted to visit Washington State and I thought the details were extraordinary. I enjoyed the story overall but I wish the author would have expanded the characters��� back-stories. I wanted to learn more about them and what made them tick, other than each other. I hope Ms. Miles writes more about this couple. That���s likely since this story is the sequel to Acapulco Adventure (which I haven���t read/the book is about two of Brenda's friends) so there might be a third story in the future. I���ll keep my fingers crossed!
4 Stars.
