A hell of a good time. A new twist on fake-dating that gender-bent the bodyguard trope, featuring a hilarious duo who made me laugh out loud.
That said, the side-characters felt pretty two-dimensional, most of whom were just stereotypes. And it was difficult to believe the narrator was as good a bodyguard as we're meant to believe because she runs away from several harmless things, e.g. attractive people and harmless albeit large animals.
