After re-reading, I loved how in this book we get Quinn's POV.

I LOVE DUAL POV (maybe that's why I like Winston Brothers series better)

That said, I begin to appreciate Janie and Quinn even more. I love series that follows the same couple because we can see then mature and grow....
Janie is awesome. She is kind, she is smart, she is loveable, she is PERFECTION.
Quinn is Batman. Needless to say more!

Continuing Janie and Quinn's story through their engagement and marriage and dealing with a number of the outstanding issues from the previous book while also setting the stage for further novels in the series.

There's a lot of acknowledging of the criticisms I had of the previous book going on in this one.

"Quinn is too controlling": he owns that specifically here, but provides the most common and least creepy justification for this, in that he feels that they own each other. Well, the book is about Neaderthals I guess; it says so right in the title.

"Janie is too judgemental": was a criticism I was making about her use of "slamp" in relation to Quinn's previous affairs. Well not only does Janie explicitly own that she tends to see the world in black and white and most people fall short of her standards, she ends up having a very positive relationship with one of Quinn's former "slamps".

"Janie is often the wrong side of annoying/entertaining": there's a lot more nuance in the writing here and it's also more clearly shown that Janie's random regurgitations of semi-relevant trivia are a defense mechanism.

I think there's a lot of inherent baggage that goes along with the billionaire romance trope that the first book bought into (while subverting it in some ways) that really can't be overcome, but this book does have a good go at. It will be interesting to see where this series ultimately ends up. This was an improvement on the previous book, and probably 3.5 stars rounded up because we're not allowed to be more nuanced than that on this site.

It’s fine, but I never really got fully invested in Janie and Quinn. Janie was at least a little interesting, but Quinn was just too controlling for me taste. My favorite scenes were when all of the supporting characters were there and I think I’ll like all of their stories more.

Love love love...

So... am on my re-re-re-re-readathon of this too wonderful for mere words series... my face aches cos I was smiling all the way through... some tears leaked out too.

I love Janie and Quinn... nuff said.

Read ebook, seemed contrived but cute enough. Still don't understand why Janie loves Quinn. Did enjoy his perspective in this book though!

I love Janie and Quinn. I would keep them in my pocket, if I could. Although, I suppose keeping them in my kindle app is the next best thing. I do wish Shelly had reconciled with her family.

I'm sad that they don't have any other books. I would LOVE to read about Janie being pregnant or her older sister showing up. Oh well.

I'll probably read the book about Ashley and if there is ever a book about Dan and Kat, I'm all over it. The other books currently in the series don't interest me enough to have me paying $5.99 for them.
