As I commented when I started the book, romance is not one of my preferred genres. It wasn't horrible; but, I don't think I'll read more romances.
I liked that the four women (childhood friends)had their own successful business, and the relationships between the women. I was disappointed in the end of the book, in terms of how Jack and Emma's separation and reunion was handled.
