okay this was the best one of this series yet! and it may be because I have a firefighter crush? like are we kidding 😶😶

this one made me LAUGH! it had all of the makings of a hallmark movie - a danger-prone single woman trying to honor her late grandmother’s wishes & a firefighter constantly saving her (literally) - and I loved every second of it!

was it a bit cheesy and predictable? of course! but it wasn’t cringey in the slightest, which I appreciate. the only lil criticism I have is that evie decided to move to this town after one date with griffin? uprooting her life for a MAN? what a concept 🫥

anyway for the sake of romance, this was wonderful! a perfect funny cheesy lil romcom 😌
