� mini spoiler-free review ⋆౨ৎ˚⟡˖ �

ˏˋ°�*⁶� my thoughts 💭
this book fell short for me unfortunately. i’m not entirely sure what i was expecting going in, but it certainly wasn’t this. that said, it wasn’t a bad read—it just didn’t quite hit the mark 🤷🏻‍♀�

ˏˋ°�*⁶� characters 🫂
�.� iris + archer 👩🏻‍🍼👨🏻‍� (the emojis are sending me 💀)
the romance between iris and archer was based on insta-lust and built on constant physical attraction, which made their connection feel rushed and shallow. there was also little depth to their characters, and i found it a bit hard to fully connect with them.

what bothered me the most was the ending, but i won’t go into details because i don’t want to spoil anything 🤦🏻‍♀�

�.� olive 👶🏻🫒
olive, archer’s 5 year old daughter, acted much older than her age, and while it wasn’t a major issue for me, it felt unrealistic.

ˏˋ°�*⁶� overall 📝
despite these issues, the book was fast-paced which helped me get through it quickly and even eased a bit of my reading slump. there were also a few cute and wholesome moments scattered throughout that i did enjoy.

i can see the appeal for readers looking for something light and fluffy, but if you’re after a story with well developed characters and a deeper, more meaningful connection between them, this one’s definitely not it.
