I really loved this book. The conclusion is really fulfilling, the character dynamics are amazing (especially Daniel and his dad & the Chen siblings - the family dynamics are great!), the romances are believable and tasty, and the plot is really good! I struggled with some parts of the book, mostly because I hated Irene so much I wasn't able to stand her, but her chatacter development was really good! Very enjoyable - I'm looking forward to anything else Grace D. Li writes & to watching the series when it drops on Netflix.
