So incredibly complex, because typically, when indulging in the romance drama, I assume that the story will end in either happily ever after or a tragedy. this book landed somewhere in between, and I honestly did not know if I agree with, or  root for, the protagonist. but even considering that I would give this book 5 stars, it leaves the reader with a lot to think about and it’s honestly just a really great story.
