I absolutely loved Darian. I loved Ash, as well, but Darian was the literal shining star of this book. His ability to be himself, see Ash for who he was, and love him despite how difficult Ash made it, was just a treat. It was clear throughout the book that Darian didn't have the most confidence in himself, but he powered through that to be as glitteringly incandescent as he was anyway. The character growth of both Darian and Ash was so sweet to see, and I even thought I would hate Niall forever at the beginning and I ended up liking him, too.
