i loved the single mom thing a lot more than i thought. he was a bit unnecessarily mean in the beginning but he at least apologized eventually. it’s still fucking weird he simultaneously acted as a their therapist but also a love interest/father figure. you really shouldn’t mix that. the third act break up was a bit forced and overplayed. but still it was funny, i also enjoyed the blind dates, though i would’ve loved to read about the final call with the agency.

3.25 marriage counselling v divorce attorney stars

This was a very trope-y premise, the marriage counsellor Luke working next to the divorce attorney Vivian, instantly clashing with her due to some (admittedly) petty reasons, yet somehow continuing to get involved in her life.

I actually liked Vivian and Luke together and I also liked how their relationship progressed. What I didn't like, or rather it felt super weird to me, hence the average amount of stars, was they way Luke started counselling Vivian's daughter behind her back and Vivian immediately started letting him be there for some pretty big moments. I mean..I'm sorry, but you decide to let your daughter finally meet her crappy dad and you let your boyfriend of two minutes go with her to another state? Definitely a no from me...

Anyway, a pretty easy read otherwise.
