fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No

Definitely one of the ones that start making me think less is more with this series. Some things aren't worth it for love. This series does best when it's just a romcom romance competition. It falls flat as soon as it starts to be anything more, have political issues, etc. It's so underdeveloped. It had potential, but it was clearly not within Cass's abilities or will to write, let alone write well.
