this was nice, but i just wasnt as invested in it as i could have been. i didnt like the secondary romance either. the twist at the end did really catch me by surprise,

but i really wanted her to retain ownership of the inn. i felt like that was an important part of her character and autonomy and i would have loved to be able to see her stay involved with it.

her inability to have children was an interesting addition; i liked that representation, and i liked that it wasnt a huge deal or a major component of the conflict
