So I started this book because I have had it on my TBR
pile for ages and I just got notification that the next one is coming out soon
and I really wanted a break from the angst and drama overload I had been on
lately. I wanted something light and fluffy and fun but for the first 10% I was
just frustrated and not really loving the characters.
I actually think I may have pulled a muscle with all the
eye rolling I had going on but I figured I would read another 10% to be fair
and suddenly I was at the end of the book with a big goofy smile on my face,
tears in my eyes and bummed that the second book wasn’t already released so I
could dive straight into it.
So why the turn around? And WTF was my issue for the
first 10%? The truth is not a lot changed to make my attitude adjust I think I
just decided to go with it and stop trying to pick apart the issues. Also the
things that were pissing me off in the first 10% set up the story so they
weren’t mentioned again so I didn’t have to dwell on them. I could just read
the story and enjoy what was happening right now rather than judge the actions
I felt were not realistic.
But one thing I do need to bitch about that really bugged
me is Ash’s attitude over her boyfriend using cocaine and the explanation she
is anti drugs then her needing to be babysat so she doesn’t get high between
takes. I personally feel there is a world of difference between cocaine and a
joint, which I am assuming is the attitude here but a distinction wasn’t really
made so it just looked like it was thrown in for the sake of drama that wasn’t
needed imo.
And to be 100% fair to the author this is a short story
based on insta love and I really can’t complain that a lot happened in the
first 10% to set the scene for the story when the book is only 200 pages. And
all those things are the reason I loved the story and completely fell for Cash.
Cause honestly he was the star of this book. He was
sweet, sexy, funny, caring and just perfect. I absolutely loved him and I am so
glad the next book in the series is going to be Cade and Palmer as I am just
dying to find out what happened between them after the snippets we got in this
book and I am also counting on seeing a bit more of Cash and hopefully his
awesome sister (she seriously stole the show off Ashlyn for me)
So if you’re like me and love insta love I honestly
suggest you struggle through the first 10% maybe with a glass of wine and get
to the good stuff to fall in love with Cash. He is well worth it.
