Drama. Good lord but this book does have the drama. Plot? Not much. Depth? Nope. The blurb was really interesting to me. I love a small-town romance, but I need to be guided into loving the community, and in this particular situation, I wanted to understand WHY they both wanted to leave it. Sure, I can infer that they want to escape a small rural life to see the world, escape poverty, earn money, etc., but there was barely any back story into the characters and no real driving force. The pacing is so choppy as well. It’s very jarring to me to time jump multiple times. Even if some were relatively short, it took me out of the story.
I tried to really see the slow-burn for what it was, but overall it lacked the romance building elements that I needed to feel connected. 3 ⭐️
