It was average, not horrible but not amazing either. Couldn't really connect with the characters and thought the plot could be better, which is a shame because I really love marriage of convenience books - note to myself to stop reading tiktok recs - but since i own a paperback copy i don't want to rate it too low either.

Jack was a dick for what he had done but I guess he had good intentions? Though I guess I'd forgive him more IF he and Rose had any history prior to the marriage proposal, it would make more sense for him to get involved.

One thing I loved about it - not sure if it was also in original or only in my copy (I was reading Polish translation) - was the list of all the tropes at the beginning of the book. Very clever and I wish all of the books had he tropes and cw/tw (if needed) at the beginning of the book, just like ao3 fanfictions. Would be a much better reading experience.
