Zoey was also very annoying so I only gave it 3 out of 5 stars. I just don’t like love triangles with 2 brothers. I enjoyed this book but not as much as I enjoyed Finding Perfect. But it’s his brother and her best friend that she ends up in love with. It follows Zoey who is at her holiday home and is on a mission to finally win over Luke Maddison, the guy her family holidays with every year. Next I read Defying Gravity by Kendra C Highley which is a companion novel to Finding Perfect. It was cute and adorable but also relatable because of Paige’s struggles with school, stress and pressure. However, they begin to fall in love with each other. This book follows Paige who is a perfect student and daughter but when she begins to fail Calculus, she gets tutoring help from Ben in exchange for setting him up with her best friend.
