It gets two stars because it started off so well. And then it went really downhill. I liked Tess a lot and thought River was a user honestly. I didn’t like her, not even when we get to the end of the book. I think what got me is that the swap was really unfair. River got a whole very nice house, fully stocked, with Tess’s husband listening to her going on and on about herself. Tess had to clean up River’s place for like 2 days, ended up having to deal with her dogs, etc. Sadly the book drags, and it’s only 270 something pages so that’s not great. I also thought it was odd the author decided to do some chapters with Tess’s son’s point of view. It didn’t work and it stuck out very badly.
