This book was so cute! I'm not going to lie, I wasn't into it for the first third of the book. The characters and the story felt superficial and I just wasn't interested but I'm glad I kept reading. I was so invested in the rest of the book and thought the love was so sweet. Once things got interesting, I liked the pace of the story and how culture was portrayed throughout. I was pleasantly surprised to encounter some steaminess but again, it felt authentic to the characters and culture. A very sweet read!
