This is my second favourite from The Wallflower series.
Matthew was great as an MMC, and truly felt like a good balance to Daisy. Unfortunately, I found the character of Daisy wasn't portrayed the way that was intended, as other characters consistently described her as whimsical but her actual character seemed almost normal, with the occasional quip. Although I found this as a great improvement in terms of liking Daisy, it was still annoying to read about.
I personally enjoyed the subplots and the insights back into the existing characters. It was lovely to see the progression of Lillian and Marcus, and the intimacy that had developed between the wallflowers.
My biggest quip with the story was the overarching secret, which ultimately seemed to be wrapped up in a chapter; there was an overload of drama, then absolutely none, with everything resolved in an epilogue (which felt wrong). Additionally, I felt Matthew was out-of-character during that whole ordeal. I didn't feel we got the same satisfying conclusion as the other stories.
