Hot dummies making the worst possible choices until they run out of other options turn out to be quite amusing to read about. Both of the leads are extraordinarily adverse to letting themselves be emotionally vulnerable, making their courtship one of near-constant missteps, but they manage to work it out in the end. I do have to subtract a star for one thing the heroine did:
She casually outs another character while in conversation with her friends. She asks them to keep it a secret and they do so no disaster ensues, but really she should have just kept her mouth shut.
