This is appallingly racist, even with old school romance goggles on. The MMC is referred to as half-breed for part of the book in an attempt to other him and give him growth. It features a strong white savior arc with the FMC. And yet, the book is also deeply romantic and I stuck it out the entire time. It's one of those books that loses points for content and I can't truly recommend, and yet I enjoyed the romantic arc itself and especially the final declarations of love.
