did i cringe all over again at the whole family with flower names? whose parents are florists? ...yes.

this one has some tropes i genuinely love (high school sweethearts + second chance romance! marriage of convenience!) but it just didn't click fully for me, and felt like a tired plot that was missing a new or creative spark. i was bored for the first half, but the characters did grow on me a bit, but it just felt really light and fluffy without any sort of sparkle or real heart or depth to it that i really love in my romance reads. 

sadly, not a favorite!
