I liked Theo and Kit. Many years ago, they were together, but after a slightly dramatic and a lot of miscommunications they stopped talking until years later they end up on the same scheduled trip. What could go wrong?
It was enjoyable enough, but I also feel like there was a lot of wasted potential here. With the entire group of people on the trip w them, I feel like they just popped in and out whenever it was convenient, or the author needed something to happen.
I do wish Theo and Kit talked more before they escalated, but emotions run high, so it seems reasonable to me. The story did get a bit repetitive at times, which made me want to skim through the same conversations that they were having, but overall, I enjoyed them. I liked how they got to relearn each other and discover that they were still in love. The setting of different adventures was also a lot of fun, but I did get confused on where we were sometimes LOL but I think that was more of a me problem.
Overall, I enjoyed it. Nothing ground breaking but enjoyable.
