It's okay.
Second chance romance can be really good or just not depending on the reasons for the initial breakup.
I think it worked for this book, they had a vacation romance, it was limited by the amount of time of the holiday, after it ended they would be separated by distance and both at a point where they were trying to decide on careers and pursue them. They were also young.
I wasn't keen on Loans attitude to relationships in the present, granted he was divorced but he no longer believed in anything long term.
The heroine is recovering from a cheating fiance.
I felt it lacked confrontation with the ex, that might have added a bit of angst.
I was a bit bored at the start, I think the author was setting up the family, particularly the sisters for future books but I felt the main couple took some time to meet up and the reader get to know the Hero.
It is dual POV but not set out by each chapter.
No cheating.
No intimate scenes with anyone other than the Hero and heroine.
Both with other people during separation, the Hero differently to the heroine as she feels she's not build for flings.
HEA.
