I bought this book last year in order to get a free cinnamon bun. Would I say it was worth it? Yes.
Is the book amazing? No. I'd say the book is okay, I had a problem with the age gap with the MMC being younger than the FMC by five years and it didn't really change the entire book. I felt it too strange, maybe it's because I'm nearly thirty and couldn't picture myself with someone that much younger than me.
I loved that the MMC was a total sweet loser for the FMC before she was crazy for him, I go crazy for that trope.
But I found the plot boring and very predictable at times and definitely was on the verge of making it a dnf book, so I will probably not read this book again and if I do it will be far into the future before I touch it again.
This was also my first book of the series so I was a little confused by some characters and their connection to our MCs, but it all worked out in the end I guess.
