hmm yeah I think it's a solid 3? I didn't hate it but I also didn't care for it lol.

I felt kinda bored most of the time, and the MMC didn't end up growing on me. I did like the FMC and the other guy that joined her heat even tho he didn't have much page time. and the two characters at the very end sounded interesting but they literally had like two chapters? idk what the point of that extended epilogue was bc it felt like the characters in it were added as an afterthought.

tbf, it is supposed to be a novella, and I know getting into every single character would have made it much longer, but I would rather have it end before the "epilogue" or just not introduce two more characters at the absolute last second?
