My Thoughts:
At first, I was really confused when reading this book as it seemed to be set at Christmas and I was sure it was supposed to be based around Halloween. However, it just starts at Christmas. Then the main story spanned over 12 months incorporating the Flirt Club’s theme of a haunted house run by the sorority girls in the following October. The story grew on me as it developed. Kal was a little evasive to his feelings so I can understand why Dani did jump to conclusions. However, I think this was overdramatised a little as it could have been easily solved had she either have walked into the bedroom or given him the chance to explain sooner. Time moved very fast in this book, jumping through the months, so I did feel as if I was missing out on big chunks of their lives. Missing out on what they were up to, their reactions to the situation and decisions that were being made. So even though, this was a light and fun read overall, I’ve just read four of Alexis Adaire’s books back to back, and this wasn’t my favourite of the four. It could have been so much better with a little more of a condensed timeline, and then I may have felt a little more compassion and warmth towards the characters.
