Light-hearted romance with a lot of vanilla spice.
Bit weirded out by engaged people sleeping with others (+ making out in public) before bothering to break off the engagement. Played heavy on the whole "rich manipulative/blackmailing business man" and the whole misogynistic "of course the females aren't regarded as business leader/CEO material" tropes. Otherwise an OK piece of romantic fluff.
