I liked this quite a bit, and the Jewish representation was authentic and great - both the protagonist and love interest are Jewish (Reform) and it flavoured lots of the plot. There was a lot of drama in between the family dynamics and the enemies to lovers romance but all ended on a nice fluffy note. The extended case were great, too. I would have really liked for this to not end so abruptly or for there to be an epilogue as the ending was too open-ended for my preference.
