I received a copy from NetGalley.
I really enjoyed listening to the audiobook and I don't think I would have liked this as much if I had physically read it. Kristin and Lauren are really cute when they're in scenes together, but I wish the pacing in the second half of the book went a little faster. I think this is my issue with 'Bachelor' style books. The first half is always really good, but by the time it's down to the two main girls and the guy they're there for, I'm ready for the act three break up and scandal, but there's still 30% of the book left.
Comparatively to Never Ever Getting Back Together by Sophie Gonzales (which is very similar), I think I like this a lot more. If for no other reason than because at least it isn't a second chance romance with the Bachelor dude.
