This is when the book lost its fun vibe for me and started to go downhill. The problem was it became so heavy, and repetitive, that it almost started feeling a bit depressing that the characters were not getting together. I love some over-the-top soap opera like angst, but this wasn’t that, it was heavy push-pull angst.
I don’t think anyone really mentioned this but I found this book to be super angsty. I have good memories of reading ex-fanfics, especially from YLVA, so I thought the book started out pretty well, until the feeling of it changed. I started reading this and I immediately got SuperCat or DWP vibes and when that happens, chances are I’m going to enjoy the book. This did have the feeling of fanfic to me but I mean that in a good way. There is so much more to that character essence and I didn’t find those other qualities in her. I don’t think a woman being successful and having power automatically makes an ice queen. I felt like she was more of an ice princess. I didn’t really see the Camila as an ice queen. Unfortunately, that right there was a bit of a bump for me.
I’m a big ice queen fan so I was excited to read this book. I think overall that this was a solid debut for Sommers and while I didn’t enjoy this as much as I hoped, I would definitely read her again. I think the book started well (besides a few bumps) and continued doing well, until the book hit a wall about two thirds in and just petered out from there. Lots of great potential but the book didn’t come together for me as much as I would have liked. Tags: age gap romance, ice queen romance, New York, opposites-attract romance, single momģ.25 Stars.
