I think Archer and Mac might be one of my favorite couples from this whole series. I loved that they had this “I really hate that I like you, but I can’t get enough of you” thing going on. I loved that Mac in particular was so very, very into Archer and wanted to get under his skin at every opportunity, whether it was arguing or flirting (or arguing that turned into flirting 😉). And I loved that Archer was just so gone for Mac and hated it, but still wanted to say yes to whatever he asked (even if he absolutely hated the thought of giving in). They were just so much fun to read!

Also! I loved the whole “waking up married in Vegas” thing. It was both hilarious and sweet. I also really loved that we got to see Archer’s barriers coming down. Especially with the family, and most importantly with Noah! Their friendship was so sweet and I loved that they took care of each other. I could probably go on forever about how much I loved everything about this book, but I won’t. It’s getting a solid five stars and now I have to go read the last book. Because you can’t just leave me on a cliffhanger like that!

Disliked - Forced myself to finish. The book was problematic for me in terms of connecting with both main characters Archer and Max AND the storyline. I kept reading because I was mildly curious at some points which kept pushing me to finish the book. 

Archer and Mac spent most of book bumping uglies at expense of a storyline that was more or less a regurgitation of another book in the series.
