Another good book in the Dive Bar series, and I really enjoyed this one. Right from the start it sucked me into the story line with Alex's trip to surprise her online friend, and hopefully take their relationship to the next level. Only surprises aren't always welcome as we soon discover in this book. I didn't expect it all all, so this element gave me a good kick start to the book. 
 As the story went on I enjoyed where things went. Alex as a character was pretty quiet, a bit reclusive, suffering from anxiety issues and doesn't get out much, so her situation really pushed her out of her comfort zone. Having said that she is also full of sass at times, giving Joe what for on a number of occasions, adding an element of humour to the book. 
 Joe was a great character, with his own issues, he's kind and caring, but does make some pretty huge mistakes in the book! 
 With plenty of drama, and some major upset and trauma, there is plenty to keep the pages turning. I enjoyed how Joe and Alex's friendship developed and the support they both offered one another. 
 I feel like we are starting to get a really good feel for all of the characters featured in the series. I look forward to the next book... Overall a really entertaining read, which was sweet, sexy, romantic and funny, with an element of sadness too!
