Falling for the Backup Epilogue

The witty banter between characters kept me smiling, but I wonder if others found it as effective as I did or if it sometimes felt rushed.

The sports backdrop added a unique flavor to the romance, and I'm curious whether it was a personal interest or a way to bring a fresh setting to the genre.

Some scenes felt a little quick, especially during key turning points. Do others think the novella format limited deeper character exploration?
