It was fine for a light, fluffy read, but I do think I would have preferred if it leaned into the Soulmate aspect of it a little more. Enemies to lovers combined with the Soulmate trope would have been dramatic enough, but the author had to ruin it for me by revealing that they weren't actually Soulmates. What's the point of incorporating this lengthy Soulmate-mechanic into the worldbuilding if the author isn't going to write one couple that gets together after being matched? The underuse of the Soulmate trope was kind of a letdown to me. I mean, the average reader probably didn't pick this up because they hate the idea of Soulmates. The use of that word in the title has me expecting to see at least one happy Soulmate couple.
