I wish there was more complexity to the side characters. I hate romance novels where the characters have no friends whatsoever. It's hard because I grew up in a small, judgmental town and I know how people are in that environment, but there is some complexity to their inner selves. It's disappointing that nearly all of the characters in here, aside from Ryan, were just stereotypical small town, conservative jerks. Also with the ending
I liked Ryan. He was probably my favorite character in here.
While this wasn't my favorite read, I am glad that a book like this exists and that it ends on such a hopeful note.
