Ren is a very sweet and friendly love interest. His family is huge, loud, and nosy, and he's grown up keeping the peace with his siblings which probably contributes to his friendly demeanor. He's very non-judgmental and charming which helps him balance out Frankie's personality. They have a great connection and I loved seeing their friendship grow closer and eventually become a romantic relationship. Ren sees Frankie for who she is underneath the rough persona and Ren gives her a safe space to be herself that allows her to open up more. Moreover, I liked that Frankie and Ren had strong connections to their cultural backgrounds. I have a strong connection to my cultural background, so it was easy for me to relate to that aspect of their characters. Frankie and Ren's use of their family's native languages was fun to see because it reminded me of my own family. Ren and Frankie sharing aspects of their respective cultures was a way for them to be emotionally intimate with one another and I loved those parts of the story most. I really enjoyed this book and look forward to reading other books in this series by this author.
