If you're going to mention 20 times that he takes her pulse with his thumb, you should maybe double- check because that's impossible. The thumb has its own pulse. I rolled my eyes every time.
Not much plot, just a very slow burn during which she somehow cures his neurodivergence. Nothing believable. Lots of repetition and filler and some very stilted dialog that nobody would actually say. There are some weird sections where none of the characters use contractions.
