What did you think of Olivia’s relationship with Trevor? Why do you feel she forgot about his opening, and kept putting off calling his mother?
I think Olivia appreciated Trevor but was so excited by her job she simply put off things related to him or her mother.
I think the relationship is doomed. I kept waiting for her to find out he’s cheating on her and the book almost went in that direction when she saw the girl interacting with Trevor after the play. She obviously expressed doubts about being married to him and kept putting off the wedding tasks. You would think Trevor would take the hint and all it off.

I thought Trevor was incredibly patient with her. I understand her being excited and busy, but those were pretty big things to blow off. Especially not remembering the opening. It would be one thing to say, “Honey, I’m really sorry, but…” but to completely and totally forget about it was pretty bad.

Olivia’s dream job was to be a detective. She was stressed at Merritt’s rude comments and constant criticism. She did not have any down time to think about her fiancé or their wedding plans.
Merritt is a terrible boss in this book, and most employees would just quit. I hope she will be kinder to Olivia in the sequel.
Olivia didn’t seem very focused on Trevor or their relationship. I would not have been surprised to see it fall apart. She was just so caught up in her job. I thought Trevor’s mother was extremely patient. At the end I did see some hope. Maybe with the mother interested in Olivia’s career and willing to direct things for the wedding, I ended up thinking that it might somehow turn out okay.
I didn’t like her relationship with Trevor. I think she could have carved out more time for him.
I don’t think she was ready for a serious relationship yet. She was so excited to be a detective that she didn’t really think of her relationship with Trevor.
Olivia is not making Trevor a priority. Eventually, I think he will end up cheating on her, if he hasn’t already.
I think Olivia got so wrapped up in the new job/case and in trying to please her name boss, that she put everything else out of her mind. That being said I don’t think it is at all acceptable that she missed his opening. Regarding his mother, I hate men telling their partners how to interect with their mothers, the more you tell me I should do something in these circumstances, the less I want to do it.
