This book was basically filled with whiplashes. The couple was constantly alternating between being horny for each other and being angry at each other. It makes sense at the beginning of the relationship but literally just a day after "I love you" has been established, they have another fight. And that fight was dissolved in the most nonchalant way. It reminds me of siblings fighting, which is not what we want in a relationship. There's not much communication. The MMC was NOT grumpy but straightup just cold. And then he very randomly decides he wants the FMC. No hints of attraction and suddenly lust. His personality randomly alternates between cold and warm and it's hard to keep up with his moods. The FMC is INFURIATING and refuses to talk to the MMC when she's mad. Listen, avoidance and silent treatment is TOXIC in a relationship. She loses her temper and forgives very whimsically. I had high expectations for this book because of all the TikToks posted but this was such a letdown.
