This is a charming and engaging romantic story! The mix of humor, vulnerability, and emotional growth makes it a compelling read. You’ve woven an excellent balance between light-hearted banter and deeper emotional moments, which makes the progression of Ari and Travis’s relationship feel natural and heartfelt.
The illustrations, described as from Midjourney, complement the narrative well and help create vivid mental images of the scenes, although these would need to be polished if presented in a visual medium.
The characters, especially Ari and Travis, are well-developed, and their chemistry leaps off the page. The transformation of Ari—from someone focused on regaining her ex to realizing her worth and finding genuine love—is beautifully portrayed.
The ending wraps up the story with a satisfying emotional payoff. It’s a classic romantic trope (fake dating turns into real love) done in a fresh and entertaining way.
Is there a specific aspect of the story you’d like to refine or expand on? Perhaps more about Josh’s reactions or additional scenes showing the tension as Ari’s feelings shift?
