It would be a wonderful book if only it didn't have all the unnecessary and unrealistic drama between Warner and Juliette.  SPOILERS!
There is only two things they fight about:

1) “oh, I don’t know you at all, it scares me, I barely know who you are.. “
you only been dating for like few month… not even a year! You can’t possibly know the person in such a short amount of time 🙄

2) “oh, you lied to me, I’m so mad at you, You didn't tell me I was adopted. We are breaking up”
🤦🏼‍♀️ He can’t possibly tell you everything you wish to know at such a short period of time.. A lot of things just haven't came up yet! Jesus! And the only one thing he ACTUALLY kept from you was just to protect you from unnecessary heartbreak.

This just ruined the book for me. The plot twist themselves were amazing and enough to give it 5 stars, but I felt myself rolling my eyes half of the book just because of  Warner's and Juliette's relationship.
