If you're looking for a short, spice-free romance, this is a great option! I loved the characters and got really invested in their stories.
The writing style felt a little too "narrator conversing with the reader" at first, which threw me off in the first few pages. But either I got used to/didn't notice it as the story went on, or it got less prominent as other characters were being introduced.
I was really hoping to find out what happened after the press release came out!

Minor: Death of parent
FMC's mom died when she was young. MMC's mom has Alzheimer's, but I didn't see an option for that.
