Cute! I'm a sucker for a romance where one of the characters just says, "fuck it, I'm into you."
There's some unhinged energy up front to establish the premise, but when the main couple gets in the same place it's extremely cute and emotionally resonates all the way through.
The voices of the two POV characters are distinct and the cutaways to what the family are up to were well done.
Did Grandma Write This? Only thing that pulled me out of this one- There was a wild, repeat use of the word "smokestack" instead of "smokeshow" (or maybe short stack? It was a strange thing to get by both a writer and presumably multiple editors.)
