It's also very sweet, and hot, and a lot of fun. The characters are cute and well fleshed out. Nobody felt flat. The dialogue is mostly fun, though there are a few points where it gets cringey. The sex scenes weren't too gratuitous.
Sometimes you just want something hopeful and fluffy.

i thought it was adorable. alex & henry are adorable. i also adore the women of this book so much. june, nora, bea all truly deserve the world.
i do wish this book was faster in the beginning. it feels like it started off slow and then picked up a lot of speed towards the end instead of having one even pace. i also think rafael luna did not deserve forgiveness. i do not like him. i sympathize with his backstory but good lord i wish alex and his family didn't forgive him. it didn't make any sense to me.
overall, i would recommend this book mostly for the romance.
