Fantastic narrator; quirky and fun and seems to hit the narrative beats really well. Only complaint is sometimes it feels like she slips into a pattern of tones for both of the characters where the inflections feel repetitive in the middle of a long internal thought process but its infrequent so I can mostly ignore it (also this may have made zero sense to someone reading it)

2nd chance romance and marriage of convenience and now only one bed?? Checking off the tropes left and right (but in a good way)

I was struggling with the FMC sorting out the time difference between Amsterdam and her family in LA, thinking the author had it totally wrong until I remembered that the US springs ahead a bit earlier than UK/EU and this book clearly starts before the start of DST. (So, like a week ago)
