I am delighted to say that this is the first romance book I have ever read cover to cover and thoroughly enjoyed! As someone who isn't a fan of romance but is a fan of cozy and romcoms, this book was fun, entertaining, and just overall a joy of a read. 
The characters were well written, the relationship was genuine, the misunderstanding was brief and actually held rational context and was based on character history and development, and I wasn't stuck in a world of smart people doing stupid things for the sake of conflict. 
The dual POV was perfectly done and I have to say i am shocked at how much I enjoyed it!
