I think, as a Romance, it breaks the mold in some surprising ways. There is a third act break up and a happily ever after, but

none of the conflict is the main character’s fault, and the mmc gets that and isn’t mass, which to be honest, I love that, but I think some romance fans probably find boring.

I’ve read some reviews that say “I only cared about the dog” and I think that’s probably due to the lack of conflict, rather than because the characters are undeveloped. Or maybe those people just hate fun. 

I picked this up because I wanted something light and fluffy and I wasn’t disappointed.

There is a scene where the mfc is lifted up as the “prize” for winning a drinking contest against her will, which is addressed as non consensual, but only about 4 pages after it first comes up.
