I was drawn to this book for the mystery aspect of the story, but it was not the main theme of the book. I enjoyed the book to some extent, but I found some parts a bit too clichè for me. I believe many will enjoy this book very much, but I think I wasn't its ideal target reader. 

I would recommend this book for whoever enjoys YA with some paranormal elements. 

Thank you to Netgalley and Beacon Press Limited for this digital ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I received an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review and was in no way, shape, or form convinced or coerced into writing a positive review. These are my honest thoughts.

I enjoyed reading it and I recommend it to people that want a feel-good story that is perfect to read during summer break.

Notes:
Weston and Tessa are at the center of the story, with chapters divided equally to represent each side. I liked the fact that we could read about Weston's past, but what about Tessa's? I believe her character was way less developed. I would have liked a bit more depth of her story, with flashbacks that would have given some insights of her own past experiences to balance the flow of the dual POVs.

This book is a perfect “beach read”. The story was light and enjoyable and it provided great escapism.
It felt a bit slow at the beginning, then it picked up the pace in the central part of the story becoming a page-turner. I truly enjoyed the honeymoon part and it was so well-structured. Plus, there were some funny scenes that made me giggle a lot. However, the last part of the book was less captivating and I got a bit frustrated with the main character, Annie. 
Overall, I liked Annie's development from being a people pleaser to a more independent person that is finally able to say what she wants.

I recommend the book to anyone looking for an easy read that allows you to immerse yourself in a dreamy holiday in Australia.
