Like a 3.5

The emotional plot for the main character was so darn good that by the time she finally started to deal with her emotions at the end, I was crying so much
Very intense supportive crying

The love interest is a bad-guy-looking soft boy and he's lovely and works well with her
Wouldn't say he gets like a big arc for himself but he definitely has some secrets up his sleeves

Why didn't I give it 4 stars or more? Heck do I know
My best guess is that as much as they work well together, they don't actually do much romantic stuff
And one star probably goes because of some stuff they do next to a certain cult related place and I couldn't wrap my head around them doing that there
There is a time and a place god darn it

I liked it overall, very quick read. Characters are cute, sometimes annoying. Liked the authors writing styling, kept me engaged and wanting more. I think there were a few issues for me otherwise I would have rated it higher. Like, adults who act like teenagers, confused about feelings seems juvenile, and the main character January who needs constant confirmation of feelings is annoying. But otherwise good book. I don't usually read these kinds of books but definitely reading more from this author.

What a sorry excuse of a main character.

Well written. I liked the concept. A good romance, but not a game-changer.
