This was a sweet romance based on the trope in the title. I really loved both leads, and I’m a sucker for a good geeky lead in a romance.

Very fast, cute, clean. Lacking depth and slightly unrealistic, but that’s probably because it’s very short.
I’ll go ahead and mention that the series is clean romance. It isn’t religious, but every book contains a version of “saving myself for marriage,” but only for the women (obv). The men have not saved themselves and are not concerned with that, but they’re (oh so generously) willing to wait. All of the couples get married extremely fast, some explicitly so that they can have sex after they’re married. Not a healthy reason to get married, but this is the theme of the series.
