An enemnies-to-friends-to-lovers rom-com set in partly in a reality dating show. I loved that Connor was the show's producer instead of one of the contestants. It made the book have more tension to it. I also liked that since Connor is a father, he was more hesitant to date, especially to have a casual relationship. The ending was perfection! The only part I didn't like was the lag/boring middle where the book just felt like it was filling pages. I also loved the jokes about romance books, the excellent defense about why reading romance isn't a guilty pleasure, and how Connor's perspective changed. Also, it had just enough spice! Almost a 5-star read but because I struggled with getting through the middle-near the end portion it's not quite 5 stars.
