3 Stars from me.
Daisy needs a pick-me-up. Her mother has passed away, her job is boring, and her boyfriend works all the time. So, she books a romantic getaway for a week to go glamping. Toby’s idea of a break is a bit different and he wasn’t all that taken with the outdoors-ness of the vacation.
Daisy finds herself with a lot of time on her hands once Toby makes it clear that he still has a lot of work to do, even though he is on vacation. She reconnects with her old friend, Clemmy, and meets Jake, a mysterious stranger camping out in the woods. She starts spending more time with Jake, and in the process becomes more disillusioned with Toby.
This was a quick read. I liked Daisy, and disliked Toby from the start, but I suppose that was the point. The other characters were all quite interesting as well. I feel like Daisy and Jake didn’t spend all that much time together, and their relationship would have been more believable if they had more time together, in varying circumstances as well.
I liked the story, but it feels like there was not enough of it, and a bit bland.
I received an advanced copy of the book from Netgalley to review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
Was I hooked by this book? Not so much, no.
