While the writing is classic Emily Henry and I resonated with the writer's block, I felt like there was actually too much backstory/plot and not enough romance, which surprised me because Emily is usually SPOT on in her romances.

I felt like they were already super attracted to each other from the beginning and I didn't really get to see the romance build, and him being married prior just felt like an unnecessary plot point.


However, it was still enjoyable.
