I normally like Tessa’s books but this one just wasn’t for me. I was not a fan of the male audiobook narrator, he made everything sound like a grand exclamation and when he did the girl parts he made her sound naive and sweet, when that wasn’t the character. The male main character also was giving me strong Joe from “You” vibes. He was manipulative and a stalker. He also would not take no for an answer, at one point the female character even seemed scared of him. But all of that was ignored and seen as cute and the actions of a man in love. It all gave me a red flag.
