NOT A ROMANCE WHERE THE GIRL PROPOSES 😠I was appalled. Other than that, this was a very safe, averagely entertaining romance. I liked the story but at times I felt like the writing jumped around too much. Layla and Sam were very Wattpad in both an enjoyable and cringey way. The spice was there but lacking. One thing I did like was how quickly their miscommunication problems were always solved. This was a very solid, Hallmark channely angst-less romance.
