I generally liked this, but some parts didn't work for me. In the first section, I was mostly hanging on for the behind-the-scenes aspect and less for the romance. With the switch to the email section I was HOOKED to the romance part - I'm such a sucker for epistolary stories. Then I kind of flagged on the whole thing by the end section. I wasn't super into any of the characters specifically, and there was a kind of remote/detached way they interacted with each other that felt off to me.
