Overall, I enjoyed reading this. I think the MCs trauma was well written and realistic. The ~spice~ and general romance was also really well done. I liked that both of the characters had emotional growth throughout the book. 

My biggest issue with this book was the casual misogyny. Hannah seemed to be the only respected woman in the book because she played hard to get. She also fed into pick me stereotype of “not being like the rest of those easy girls”. 

But overall a cute book!
