Sure she's the protagonist, she's supposed to be lovable, and in this case, cute. These are the only reasons this book didn't get 5 ⭐ because other than that it was excellent. Also, the male love interest, Hart, was a little too obsessed with his female counterpart's boobs, in my opinion. For example, while the writing was mostly great and very intelligent, it could be a little cringy at times. BUT, there were some minor things that didn't really impress me. Excellent romance and world-building, extremely likeable and relatable characters, solid plot and subplots. It's the little things in life, right? □□ For the most part, I found this story terrific. Not to mention its additional grumpy x sunshine trope that I also find delightful and have been reading a lot of lately. It was humorous, sweet, emotional, and delightfully romantic in that specific haters-to-lovers trope kind of way. The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy may have a pretty simple yet straightforward plot, but its execution was very well done. Another blessing is that I deeply enjoyed all three of these ARCs even if they weren't all 5 ⭐ reads. I don't know how I managed to pick three different ARCs, all of them great, and all of them including adorable pet dogs that made the stories 100x better. ⚠️ Trigger Warning: Various depictions of death⚠️ ❗ This is a spoiler-free ARC review from NetGalley❗ I feel very strongly that you deserve a friend more worthy of you than I am in reality.
