Writing was good and I throughly enjoyed this book. Sort of fat positive romance (I personally pictured Olive to be closer to my size than the midsized description given to her) especially since she completely moved on from him when she thought that he judged her based in on her eating preferences. Ethan Thomas is a sexy himbo!
However hated that he refused to accept Olive telling him that his brother was not a good guy when she had multiple reasons and receipts on Dane but the writing helped me understand he couldn’t until it was right in front of his face due to his faith in his brother.
Honestly not that big of a deal to me, though, simply because I so throughly enjoyed Olive’s character. From her fatal flaw of honesty and all the growth she did over the book, I adored how she found how to stay true to herself. Love the groveling scene in the restaurant. Probably did not need the epilogue part but it was cute.

Some of my favorite tropes: fake dating, one bed, enemies to lovers. I was on board with the main characters Olive, Ethan, and Ami right away, and the audiobook performance was really well done. I hadn't realized/remembered before starting the book that Olive and Ami were twins, which makes my second book this month that includes the twin relationship. Funny coincidence!
