okay, i think this was my fave of the series?!?! anyone else?!?!
the vibes were great, love a good friends to lovers trope, the side plots were more interesting, it wasn’t forcing a “bad boy” trope like the first two, Cassie and Tate seemed mature… i was vibing!! Tate was definitely my fave boy MC of the 3 books (i needed a break from the twins lol). Cassie was prob my second fave girl MC behind Mac. but of course, we got cameos of everyone in this one!!
the only thing i wasn’t sure about was the 3rd act breakup in this one… it seemed VERY random. this was also the longest of the 3rd and they were so happy and everything was going so good that the 3rd act conflict almost felt… too late? glad it was resolved quickly though 😅😂
quick notes on the series:
🏖️ beach setting
💖 cute love stories, variety of tropes
🥵 steamier than i expected, esp books 2 & 3
🤝 a fun friend group
😎 overlapping characters and plots between the 3 books
👏🏼 strong side plots—gave me Katherine Center vibes as most tackled strong themes about family, finding yourself and finding happiness, etc
series ranking:
1) THE SUMMER GIRL
2) GOOD GIRL COMPLEX
3) BAD GIRL REPUTATION
do i check out her other series?!?! YAY or NAY? 👇🏼👇🏼
