I love that this is set in the Caribbean. I hate the trope of women sacrificing everything to save a guy who then turns on her. Honestly after all these classical tales, a hatred for men is almost natural. At the same time, the main character was so unreasonable and irrational (throwing away everything she had in life with really no good reason at all, not even context to justify it) made it really hard to sympathize with her side. The dude was just reasonable.
