Unfortunately this was my least favourite in the Appies series. I found I didn't care for the main couple and I didn't even care for the scenes involving the rest of the team either.
The last 3rd, the final conflict, was so utterly annoying and nonsensical that I couldn't even cheer them on, Van had so little backbone, instead of trying to clear the misunderstanding right away he sulked, was spiteful, and waited for the girl to apologise first.
Our FMC had no fight in her at all either, and her 'people pleasing' seemed to disappear around the one guy she wanted to be pleasing, so I guess they're a perfect match?
I ended up wanting to skim through scenes and the whole book ended up pretty meh.
