I liked this a lot. The MMC, Justin, in particular, was a real charmer and very sweet. I liked that this wasn’t really trope-y at all, and all the conflicts between the two main characters were genuinely challenging issues. I didn’t love the ultimate resolution, which felt a bit rushed and unrealistic, a bit out of step with the overall realism of the rest of the book. Still an enjoyable read though.
