DNF. Couldn’t get through another book with that heroine. She drove me bonkers. I’m going to skip to book 3

Janie absolutely adores Quinn and is quite happy but after five months of dating she's not sure if she should say yes to his proposal after all they've only known each other during the good times and they've never had a bad time with each other.
So Janie proposes something she thinks will give them all the stress they need before they're married; to have a big wedding.
Sure it's manufactured stress but she figured it would be a good test for their relationship.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
I didn't enjoy this one as much as I did the first one.
I couldn't put the first one down but this one I didn't feel that urge to continue at all.
I think in part because nothing really happened with the characters' characterization?
They're both pretty much the same(Janie still self-depreciating and uncertain and Quinn still private and feeling guilty) and the only the that really happened was the wedding prep.
I honestly wished I learned more about them but nothing new was revealed.
I think it would've been nice if there were more chapters in Quin's POV.
I was hoping that there would've been more to the small side plot with their families, it didn't feel like, to me at least, that things were resolved.
It was just kinda told to the reader that Janie/Quinn were done with the family side plot and they were moving on.
I just wanted more I guess.
I was a little startled when I got to the sex scenes because the last book was fade to black.
Also this book should be read after Book 2 of the Knitting in the City, because there's some extra info about Elizabeth's and Nico's romance that occurs in this novel so at times it felt as if I was missing something.
This is a nice fluffy read but not a lot of plot.

I’ll be honest, I’m having a hard time deciding how I feel about this book. I loved it for the fact that we got more Janie content, but I also genuinely hated some parts of this. Usually, when the male lead’s POV is introduced, it makes my heart clench, it’s gives me butterflies, that why I usually love them so much. However, that was not the case this time round. In fact, his POV put me off massively. I really liked his character in the first book, but now that I’ve seen into his mind, I don’t feel the same way. I’m unable to tell you what exactly it was about it that I hated so much, all I know is that his thoughts disgusted me in a way. No, they were gruesome or anything like that, they just grated me in a way. Another part that I absolutely hated were all the Chapters from the Las Vegas part of the book. I would have loved to do without them and I wish I could erase it from my memory. In fact, that’s exactly what I’m going to do. Poof, it’s gone.
Apart from these problem, I had a great time. As a whole, this book was...alright, it certainly didn’t live up to the standard of the first, but that’s to be expected since sequels are never good. I’d say that this book deserves 3 stars, however, I thought that ending was so sweet - honestly, mostly just because of Desmond and Janie’s new way of thinking - that I gave it an extra star on top. I don’t know, for some reason it just hit me in the heart.

This absolutely should never have been a full novel. It was hard enough to get through the first book, which is over 14 hours long, but then Reid decided to write a second 13 hour long book that's basically about a couple arguing over marriage for 13 hours!
It's awful! Even Quinn, who I liked best coming out of the first books, has several facts revealed about him that make him less likable.
This should have been a 4-5 hour novella about their wedding and nothing else, like A Beautiful Wedding by Jamie McGuire. That's it, the end.
