Creating a rom com out of Succession characters is a brilliant idea and I am so excited Christina Lauren came up with it. Opposites attract, fish out of water, fake marriage, all the tropes! It's funny and glamorous, but does explore the extreme wealth and family trauma that the MMC is going through. The banter in particular sticks out to be and despite the characters being total opposites, I really rooted for them both.
