I feel like I have accepted? Understood? Overcome? The premise of this series it's getting to be a more enjoyable read. The main character is so adorable and the story is more about Dom learning to believe in himself and watching him build his self confidence and accept his own worth.
When I look at the story in that way the complaints I had before about the writing and the lack of storyline fall way.
This is more about Dom's psychological growth and how his friends deal and heal from their trauma.
As someone who has been sexually assaulted, experienced PTSD from the trauma and done the work to bring myself back from victim to survivor to thriving, the journey of the side characters is the most realistic I've read in this genre.
