After All the Feels and Spoiler Alert, Olivia Dade once again delivers a warm and wonderful romantic comedy about two co-stars who once had an incredible one-night stand—and after years of filming on the same remote island, are finally ready to yield to temptation again…
Maria’s one-night-stand—the thick-thighed, sexy Viking of a man she left without a word or a note—just reappeared. Apparently, Peter’s her surly Gods of the Gates co-star, and they’re about to spend the next six years filming on a desolate Irish island together. She still wants him…but he now wants nothing to do with her.
Peter knows this role could finally transform him from a forgettable character actor into a leading man. He also knows a failed relationship with Maria could poison the set, and he won’t sabotage his career for a woman who’s already walked away from him once. Given time, maybe they can be cooperative colleagues or friends—possibly even best friends—but not lovers again. No matter how much he aches for her.
For years, they don’t touch off-camera. But on their last night of filming, their mutual restraint finally shatters, and all their pent-up desire explodes into renewed passion. Too bad they still don’t have a future together, since Peter’s going back to Hollywood, while Maria’s returning to her native Sweden. She thinks she needs more than he can give her, but he’s determined to change her mind, and he’s spent the last six years waiting. Watching. Wanting.
His shipwrecked Swede doesn’t stand a chance.

This was a nice story, and I don't know if it was because I wasn't a much in the mood for romance as I thought it because of the book (maybe a bit of both ) but this wasn't as good as I expected.The premise was a fun idea, and it was nice to get to see another part of the cast from the start of their filming until the series end in the other books. And I just didn't connect with the characters as much. Their banter was funny, though. One glaring issue I have is this: Maria is happy she's cast in a role that doesn't have anything to do with fatness as a fat person yet almost the entire book focuses on their fatness in some way. Especially since one of Maria's things is that she's into fat positivity activism. How nice would it have been if that hadn't been a core part of her character? It's kind of ironic that a lead makes says something about that phenomenon in media, and then the book blatantly goes on to basically do exactly that thing.
