I love Falon—Right on Cue was one of my favorites of 2024. But Change of Heart fell flat for me. The FMC was *too* insufferable that, despite everything, was never redeemed in the story for me. The use of "sweetheart" from the MMC drove me insane the entire time. I don't find that as a term of endearment and even if he wasn't trying to be condescending, it gave me that vibe. There were parts that I loved—the Gilmore Girls vibe of the town, the festivals, and the people. But overall? I struggled to get through it.
