3.75⭐ rounding up. It wasn't perfect but it was VERY sweet. 

The beginning felt a little clunky and heavy handed with the Grumpy/Sunshine characterizations of Finn and Naomi, but the story found it's stride after the first couple of chapters and the middle of the book is where these characters really shined.  I loved seeing the two of them fumble around with their developing relationship. And I ate this up from the 20%-80% mark but then the ending lagged a bit. But I will give it bonus points for being external drama rather than some kind of miscommunication between these two that drove the final act. 

What I loved most about this were the characters themselves. The representation was wonderful - bi FMC w dyslexia and anxiety. MMC in therapy and working on his mental health after his accident. (And not to mention all of the side characters.) This also felt super body positive and I love seeing a pear-shaped queen and an athlete love interest who isn't built like a Greek god.... refreshing. 

I'll absolutely read the next book and I'm really looking forward to seeing Lincoln and Henrick getting books hopefully???
