I really like the main character. Avery is an incredibly capable and successful woman but suffers from crippling insecurity.  While this may get old for some readers,  as a fellow plus sized girl with anxiety, horrible self-esteem and low sense of self-worth, my heart went out to her. Finn was such an amazing guy and every time he teaches her how to love herself, it felt like it was healing a small part of me too. The plot was small but solid. The epilogue was truly the cherry on the cake so I genuinely wished the author had included it in the book properly. It truly tied the story together nicely and bumped it up from a 4.5 stars to the full 5 stars.
