I loved this until about 90%. It felt like someone else wrote the last 10%, or maybe Thomas just couldn’t figure out how to end it?

Uhhh…. The moment she bursts into the drawing room where dude is baring his soul to the gossips, my spidey sense went off. I feel like Thomas’ editors told her to zhuzh up the ending or someone, because it feels very Disney. I wanted a profound heart-to-heart (and bonking)  in the quarry.

Instead, they’re giggling and snuggling and laughing and winking and it’s like what?
