I always go into romance novels with low expectations, so this one turned out to be a pleasant read. It helped that the two main characters both had family issues they were dealing with so it wasn't just a romance novel. The way these issues were resolved didn't feel that satisfying, though. There's also a side plot where they start researching a cult for a book, which felt kind of random, and didn't really go anywhere but could have been cool if it was a bigger part of the plot.
