I thought I wouldn't be able to get past the setup of this book (impulse Vegas marriage to a stranger) because I'm decidedly not a romantic and have trouble suspending disbelief for romance themes. But I loved the aspects of the characters that author illustrated using the plot points (difficulty with parent/child relationships, not knowing who you really are or what to do next after a big life change like graduating from higher education, dealing with racist institutions). The characters being believable and relatable was what it took for this story to win me over. All in all this was a sweet book and a great read for anyone in need of a happy ending.
