Cheesy and cliche, but that’s the point, and as a hopeless romantic, I adored the arc, down to every single frustrating act/trope. I wasn’t as attached to the characters as I usually am in books like this, but their chemistry was well written with the dual perspectives. Part of me wonders if I didn’t cling to this story as much because I felt the narrator for Mason wasn’t quite right—there’s nothing wrong with the narrator himself, don’t mistake that!! It just didn’t feel right for Mason’s character—especially after seeing him through Sawyer’s POV. Overall, though, I’m a sucker for overly-cheesy, mind-numbingly satisfying cliche romances, and this ticked many of those boxes.
