Grumpy sunshine done right (where the grump is actually just grumpy and not a mean-spirited asshole). The dynamic between Diego and Mickey was interesting with her being his professor and him being her boss at the bar. 

I enjoyed reading about older main characters and felt they did mostly act their age. I did feel they felt more lust than love and scoffed a few times when they just “couldn’t keep their hands off of each other” for like TWO WEEKS. 

I felt really connected to Mickey and her feelings about living with a chronic illness, but I didn’t feel connected to Diego’s grief. I felt told about it rather than actually feeling it.

Overall still very cute and I would definitely recommend.
