It seems like different people write Stephanie Brother books. I've read several of her books and they're all written differently and not in a good way. Some are good and entertaining. This one is not. It's stupid.
SPOILER ALERT Okay so I love the plot of the story, but I just feel like it doesn’t have enough going on. Maybe I’m the only one, but it just seems a bit too quick. Like they meet, sleep together, the get engaged in the matter of weeks. Like yeah I guess it’s someone’s fantasy but I would loveeee, if it had…hmm more story to it? But besides that, amazing book. ❤️
Fade Into You, Book 2 of the Summer Nights series, was about 30-year-old Connor "Cal" Callahan and 21-year-old Mackenzie "Mac" Mercer. (Although the author stated that both of the main characters worked at the "Field", the only jobs that were ever clearly defined for either of them were that Connor was a baseball coach and "Owner", and Mackenzie worked at the concession stand.)
Side Note: Let me start by saying that, although this book was full of information dumping, none of it was cohesive, nor did it tell you WHY things were happening the way they were. It was a bunch of hodge-podge thrown together into a mixing pot and left for the reader to unscramble, but without being given a clue as to what should go where. It made the reading of the story uncomfortable and, at times, very boring.
Connor met Mac at a local bar by accident after setting up a one-night stand on Tinder. They had an "oral quickie." She left before he was done with her, and he inadvertently ran into the woman he was actually supposed to hook up with.
It was nearly a week before they met again, but it wasn't quite so pleasant this time. She nearly ran him over on her way to work. He tried to get her fired from her job, but later that day his father forced him to marry her instead.
The book was full of angst, drama, melodrama, conflict, push/pull, secrets, and fluff. The emotional rollercoaster ride was too long, windy, and twisty. It had too many loops and not enough clarity.
Even though it was only 30 chapters long, it was too long and it quickly became boring. By Chapter 12, nothing was really going on, and nothing was being said that helped the reader understand the plot or storyline. The dialogue was few and far between, meaning most of the book was either narrated by the author or used as introspection for each character. But even then, too little was revealed to the reader to make it hold their interest for very long. Everything moved at a snail's pace, and it made for a very boring story. On top of that, the secrets, push/pull, and miscommunications between the two main characters lasted for far too long.
Both main characters were more immature than most I've read about, and these two needed to grow up. However, it took 29 of the 30 chapters for them to make any progress. By then it was too late. Even the spicy scenes were disappointing and far between.
The ending was a little rough and, to some, it may not be what they were looking for. However, it fit the storyline quite well. I gave this book a three-star rating simply because of the facts stated above. Otherwise, it was a good story.
Lol, this was seriously straight up smut. It's not a book, this is pretty much a definition of book smut in every page. And I enjoyed it for the most part lol 💀
Had promise but didn’t feel the chemistry it needed more to build the attraction felt flat for me. It had some buildable moments and a little family drama but the ending fizzled for me. The standard HEA but the relationship wasn’t long enough to feel the romance. Average for me sorry.
