I’m really sorry I didn’t enjoy this book at all. Instalove? Susan has been through a traumatic experience was then was saying that she could read a lesbian book without turning gay, which seemed like a stupid statement to me. And falling for someone you keep saying looks so much like your adoptive daughter?
I thought the idea was great but the execution wasn’t good for me.

Okay, yep, it's confirmed, I'm definitely on a random love in lesfic romances streak right now.

In this one Jackie is just having a regular sort of day, when a sixteen year old named Beth appears at her door in Florida. Beth is Jackie's birth daughter.

Jackie takes Beth home to Savannah (a la Emma and Henry) and meet's Beth's adoptive mother, Susan, and then Jackie goes home and thinks that's it.

It's not it. Susan and Beth wind up needing a place to stay urgently, and they go to Jackie.

And so she and Beth get to get closer, and, then Susan finds herself falling in love with Jackie too.

I liked the Susan/Jackie story enough, but, it was Beth's story in all its glory (and teenage angst) that I really connected with more. It reminded me of the crazy stuff that is running through teens heads at all times, or, at least the stuff that ran through my head on occasion. (Although, I'd like to point out that if Beth is 16 and this takes place in 2018 or 2019 then she is Generation Z not a Millennial (we used to be called Gen Y)).

Overall it was a helluva fun book, although the beginning of the end was a little flat I thought, but, all the journey before that was quite amazing.

I received this book via Netgalley thanks to Bold Strokes Books.
