I’m so sad because I really enjoyed the first few chapters and the banter between Daisy & Liam was so entertaining but the relationship development was too fast for me (to be fair this is a second chance romance) and the amount of contradictions made me want to pull my hair out (characters say one thing but then do another thing). 

Also check TWs - it was supposed to give depth to the characters but it felt very surface level and everyone was wayyy too forgiving to a guy that left with no warning for 10 years.

If I hadn't read Sara Desai's book in the series I would have liked this more. I feel like it hit the same hallmarks as first book a little too often for comfort. Does Daisy have neurodivergent? Could they say it? Felt like she was a walking cliche and that crashed with personality they gave her in first book.
