☼SYNOPSIS



Meredith Fox has been going to Martha's Vineyard for the summer as long as she can remember. But this summer is the first one back since the death of Meredith's sister. It will all be overwhelming, but even more since since the entire extended family will be together for her cousin's big wedding.


Unfortunately, Meredith's longtime boyfriend unexpectedly dumped her two weeks before the wedding, leaving her dateless. Luckily, she has the perfect distraction. Her family has a tradition of playing the ultimate game of Assassin every summer, and this year it will take place during the week of wedding festivities.


But her target just happens to be a very cute groomsman. She's determined to not let herself get distracted, not let herself be lost in another doomed relationship. But as the week progresses, she can't help falling for him, which may cost her not only the game, but also her heart.



REVIEW


★★★


Rating: 3 out of 5.


This was…okay I guess. There are really good things and not so great ones in this story.

On one hand, we have the amazing summer vibes and that summer feeling which was great and part of why I decided to read it. The family dinamic was also super interesting and i thought it was so fun seeing all of them playing together and how well they got along. 

The romance was kind of OK, it was nothing outstanding, really predictable and overall a fine element.


The background story on how the MC was going through such a hard thing as losing a sister, was something I really appreciated because it was nice seeing her redoing all of the memories on the summer vacation place where she used to be with her sister and how she was trying to overcome it and find peace again.


However, the game part plot of this book was soooo boring, it was fine at the beginning and all but by the 80% i was a bit sick of it. I wished it would have ended earlier and just see them live together a part from the game.


If you are looking for a fun summery book, with big summer vibes then go for it!
