Cute. I liked how these characters knew how to use their words when things got hard instead of falling into the miscommunication trope.

It was a great book. It was relatable. The only part I didn't like is how in the epilogue she is pregnant only like 2 years after the book ends. I wish we could have seen more of her professional skating.

Now this was a fun read. It's very cheesy, but that's what a book like this should be I think. There were a lot of moments that I did genuinely find funny. But also you cannot just put "definitely written by a woman" about your MMC in your book... come on now.

Also I think I'm giving this 3.5 instead of 4 simply because I could have done without the epilogue pregnancy but that's just me
