Such a sweet, funny, and SPICY why choose rom-com! I found myself actively laughing out loud at parts and really feeling for the characters. My only complaint is — dare I say — it might have been too spicy? Like these scenes lasted CHAPTERS and it was pretty nonstop once Luke joined in. While all the spicy scenes made sense for the plot, I wish there were just a few relationship building scenes (like seeing Layla interact with Josh and Luke pre-arrangement just as friends. And Luke’s date!) in there too to balance it out.
