Jillian is on summer break. A time to enjoy, break from college, soak up that sun and just enjoy.

Oh but a love triangle is around the corner! Kind of. Jillian takes a summer job where she meets Grant. Grant is a good guy but doesnt want anything. Plus Jillian is dating Christian anyway.

This is a multi POV which has always been a hit or miss for me. Multiple POV is not my go to kind of thing and the love triangle was pretty much like any other I've read. There are ups and downs where one person ends up realising which guy has really been there a d the one to be with.

The book was good, its an easy read through.

The first sentence tells me that this book isn't for me. A few paragraphs down, it's confirmed. The foul language doesn't suit me, so I will not finish this one. Thank you for the opportunity though.

I lost interest in this book and don't plan on reading and reviewing it anymore. Will update my review if I ever change my mind. My apologies!
