...written. The pacing is fantastic, and I love how she is reflecting back on her past relationship with the SL male although it seems she didn't acknowledge her unrequited love in those years where he was with others, so I can't completely fault him for that. At first I thought, oh, great, another one of those down on their luck guys who uses her for an ego boost and then disappears again, but he has surprised me that he's NOT that way. He genuinely is in love with her. I almost want him and Noa to be together because she's as lost as him right now.
Now he's feeling the pain she felt not getting it back in return although again maybe he felt it all along, and he was trying to push her to acknowledge how she felt back. Men are strange that way and annoyingly so at times. He almost seems that type too scared to take the leap, so he just chose shallow relationships while keeping his love hidden for her as she remained at his side. I actually am enjoying the whole dynamic between the three of them because you're seeing regret and hope in through their eyes.
I see a good guy in the SL male. He's not some scumbag but someone who wants to change for the better to be good enough for her, but unfortunately for him, it's too late in the game for that. Someone who suits her better has come along.
Speaking of which, I love how the ML has evolved as well. He seemed to be disgruntled and unhappy, but then, this quirky chick comes along and makes him smile and feel again and want to fall in love. The way his BFF called him out on his feelings was great.
I love how the relationship between the leads grew over time. It was just really beautiful. She is down to earth and normal which is refreshing. It also seems he's had his eye on her for a while, but he was being very cautious because again he was hurt himself.
Noa's relationship is so toxic with that scumbag. I want her to find love so badly that it hurts at times reading about her pain and anguish over what he did to her. I physically want to do harm to this guy who doesn't exist, so bravo to the writing for making me despise him so much. He's an insensitive prick.
