🌶️: 2/5

After both going viral for their respective breakups, best friends June and Levi decide to fake date. Out of the deal, June gets publicity for her struggling tea shop, and Levi is hoping to get his ex fiancé to get back together with him. Along the way, their unresolved feelings from high school come back to life 

For how ridiculous the premise is, this is a surprisingly cute love story. Both the FMC and MMC are likeable, though my favorite character is June’s best friend. 

I enjoyed seeing them process their grief over June’s sister’s death together
