Rating: 4 out of 5.

Phoebe is checking into this beautiful hotel for one night, and one night only, until her life changes as she becomes part of the wedding people.

Originally, I started this book to read on my vacation to Rhode Island, since the story takes place in Rhode Island, but I quickly changed that plan. I knew next to nothing about this book other than people really liked it. It was not quite the romance vibe I was looking for on my week away.

That being said, I was invested in the characters. The beginning was a bit slow as we got the exposition to Phoebe’s life, but I wanted to see how everything would play out. I needed to see how everything would play out. And the whole book had me wondering what would happen next. Even when I only had 10% left, I still was not sure how it would end.

Phoebe’s honesty was… honestly kind of inspiring. I have actually found myself trying to be a little more forward and honest. Maybe not as honest as Phoebe, but I see why all the characters found her refreshing.
