Accidental Tryst by Natasha Boyd

Accidental Tryst (Charleston, #1)Accidental Tryst by Natasha Boyd
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This was an adorable and funny story, in which the two main characters accidentally swap phones and end up building an unexpected long distance relationship by text, email, and phone calls. There's a lot of humor, in addition to some heavy topics being covered. Each MC has an appropriately tragic backstory, that helps bring them together.

The only thing that was dissatisfying is that there were a lot of plot threads that were set up and then dropped. I kept expecting those things to be addressed or resolved, and it was disappointing when they weren't. Anticipation can be great, except when a story sets you up to anticipate things that never come to fruition.

The story ended up being a giant, hand-knitted scarf with some jagged holes, uneven edges, and random loose threads, but despite that it's still a ridiculously adorable scarf that looks like it was created with love, which is why I rounded up to 4 stars, when probably it's more of a 3.5 star read for me.
