While this story had the potential to be a heartfelt and genuine romance, it unfortunately missed the mark. I've enjoyed the author's previous works, which made it all the more disappointing.
Shane, the main character, returns to his hometown and develops feelings for his best friend's sister, Caitlin. However, the story quickly escalates as Shane starts visiting her at her workplace, and then suddenly professes his love and lifelong commitment to her.
Instead of allowing readers to experience the gradual deepening of their relationship, the story fast-forwards through key events, leaving their engagement feeling abrupt and unearned. There was so much potential for genuine interaction and detailed exploration of Shane and Caitlin’s characters and relationship dynamics, but it just didn’t happen. This resulted in a superficial and unsatisfying love story that just felt rushed, and missed out on the depth and substance it could have had. Overall, the story was a letdown and could have been so much more.
