This was a cute, funny romcom with some actual LOL moments and plenty of prose that was heartwarming and beautifully-written!
I liked Danny a lot! And even though I wished he was more assertive, I understand that as an artist he is more likely to be expressive creatively than assertively. The way he dealt with his ex felt very passive and "womp womp" when I wanted him to fight back a little lol, but maybe I'm just messy?
I didn't care much for Kaliya. I felt like she made Danny the center of her universe in both times of her life that she encountered him, and she made the same mistake of putting him on a pedestal of sorts in her mind that made her run at the first sight of him not being who she'd decided he was in her head. Her unwillingness to communicate with him really frustrated me at times! I also didn't buy their love story in college in the sense that what they had was not intense or passionate enough (in my opinion) for them to have held out for each other that way, so the "second chance" aspect fell a little flat for me, which was a shame because I love second chance romances!
I liked Neha and Bella a lot and thought they were fun, solid friends who came alive off page!
I'm very excited to read more from Myah Ariel! Her knowledge of industry really shone through and made this an enjoyable read.
