mm its a cute story with a really captivating plot, but throughout the book it just felt like something was missing? the moments i so desperately wanted the characters to have were there, but at all the wrong moments. the ending just wasn't it, i feel like it could've been handled better. also it reads like a smutty fanfic; sex scenes when it shouldve just been characters working through their problems and everything being spelled out for us because the author doesnt trust we'd understand otherwise.
