struggled with the random bouts of "he struggled to not punch Character XYZ in the face" and hazel slapping him on the side of the head. There was also a strange comment about people with piercings early on that I didnt appreciate. overall I enjoyed the book a lot but it was hard to get into and i was told the smut was "filthy" and i didnt even blush reading it. the side characters and main character jeanie are very loveable and i look forward to the next one, hopefully it doesnt also include the things i disliked from this one. it truly had the vibe of a small town romance, and had a few sweet moments, it just included some very normalised little things that werent relevant to anything and that i didnt like.
