3.0

I think I had higher hopes for this one, but it felt a little off. Lots of waffling between being super horny about one another and not wanting to really communicate about anything. The seeming lack of communication from Wilder drove me nuts. The age gap and brother's best friend were fine. The way Iris' family was handled, I didn't love. The deceased wife backstory was just fine- when the truth came out about their relationship, it didn't really surprise me I think the way it was intended to. Overall, not bad but definitely not my favorite.
