After walking in on her fiance cheating on her, Charlotte breaks that off and subsequently quits her job at his company. She's trying to sell her dress when she finds a beautiful note sewn inside another and decides to stalk the dude on social media. Their embarrassing first encounter leads to her getting a job, though she doesn't realize till later on that it's at his family's company. With a scheming grandmother throwing them together every chance she gets, they have a hard time battling their chemistry. But Reed has good reason to avoid attachments, no matter how hard it feels.
I don't know this one is pretty slow. I understand Reed's hesitance, obvious trauma from his previous relationship and fear of the future. It was decent representation of a scary diagnosis. But it just felt like it dragged so much and I'm kind of sick of that "grumpy" protagonist that would be an immediate red flag in real life the way he sort of leads her on then snaps at her about it. It was a nice and realistic ending, but nothing that really stands out as all that special of a love story.
