This book had everything, I laughed and cried, also cringed a little in the typical rom-com style. But also loved Scarlet and Finns interactions and how much they helped each other to be their best selves. Finn was an idiot at times and felt sorry for Scarlet who went through a lot. I was proud of her but also God how was she able to stick to her newfound self-worth, while I would have been a puddle..
It had all the good tropes and plenty plenty of steam, while some moments where embarrassing then other times you can see Bindis unique style shining through - showing the raw human nature and how things are not always perfect but dreams can come true.

Stella had a difficult past, and just earned her freedom. She has her best friend voice in her head - negative and bad influence telling her she is better off with her.
A month and she walks past Vivant window display which is horrible and an unusually dapper man with bowtie and weird stories asks her opinion. She once wanted to be a designer. He gives her a chance to work at the store and starts really falling for her.
He is inherintly a good guy and wants to please everybody and see good in people. But he has a rough side underneath he wants to unleash.
Liked his possessiveness and how mister nice guy can be dirty and spicy in the sheets. Yet, I was annoyed how by the book things needed to be.
On the off side, of course the story is very unbelievable, their backgrounds so different and his trust too sudden. Considering how we learn about Stella's bad image it seems she should have mistrusted more or maybe been a little more annoyed with his law abiding nature. Stella's character fell a little flat for me, while I liked Aiden more.
And omg, I know I shouldn't concentrate on that, but protection is important, even tho they had it the second time but still. It's my pet peeve.
But, that's why this is fiction and doesn't have to be super realistic!
