Going too slow for me right now. I need something that moves a little faster.

I really did like this one. The characters were fleshed out and their love story was realistic. But, I was honestly stressed the entire time. I had a guess that Eli would have known from the start that he was supposed to fall for Calla and I was so worried about how it would all work out and how she’d take it. but I did like the end. It felt plausible with the characters and left me satisfied. But I did have to take off 1.5 stars for all the stress I felt 😂
Also, there’s one open door scene.

This premise had so much promise, but it fell flat. I was interested at first, but there were too many husbands that I found myself not rooting for the MC at all, so I had to put it down.
