The Devil and the Deep Blue Sea

I loved the first book in this series, but this one just didn't do it for me.
I think I liked the few mentions of Hayes more then Joshua throughout the book lol

Anyway, i shouldn've just dnfd this when I lost interest. I didn't care about the characters at all, and they barely had any tension and angst, for the fact that she is his brother's girlfriend. I was expecting SOME level of taboo, but this was very insta love.
Also, the book has a segment with a lot of unnecessary misunderstandings that really frustrated me and overall I did not root for this couple.

Also, one of the things I loved most about the first book was the amazing banter between the characters, and this didn't even come close.

I will say I loved the vacay vibes and the Hawaii settings, though.

I'm still intrigued by Ben's appearence and would be interested to read the next book, bit this just wasn't it.
