Fake dating/marriage of convenience. Workplace romance. The protagonist goes through a journey of growth -so it’s not one of those stories where all a woman needs is a man to complete her life. Holland’s relationship with her uncles makes for a beautiful, heartwarming read. I really enjoyed watching the dynamics of the protagonist and best friend play out as this toxic friendship scenario is a common and integral part of moving from universities years and into the next stage of life. In all I think it displays multiple journeys to healthy communication and becoming the person you deserve to be before you choose who else you deserve around you. The audiobook is well narrated.
