Dillon is the CEO of Lewis Sporting Goods, and he's so busy he can only do casual relationships. But he's starting to feel a bit lonely when his cousins Gabe and Reardon both found women to start families with. When Dillon's sister asked for a favor for her best friend Laurel, Dillon can't say no. But Dillon remembers Laurel as the girl who had pranked him incessantly decades ago, not the professional woman today, hoping to get a business plan together so she can expand her family flower shop into a party and wedding planning business. // Laurel had a crush on Dillon since she was nine, so much so she let her bestie (Dillon's sister) talk her into pranking Dillon all the time, until Dillon left. She trusted her parents to set her up with a guy, only to have him steal her startup capital to feed his gambling addiction. Then her parents tried to send her back to him. She ran the family flower shop, but her parents basically forbid her to change ANYTHING. When Dillon agreed to help her, and even took her to a convention, she finally knew how a woman SHOULD be treated. Dillon started to wonder what married life to Laurel would be like, but Laurel started having doubts when she learned that her bestie MAY have leaked her misfortune to Dillon. So was he really in love... or was it just a pity f***?
Somehow, I think the darkest hour was a bit TSTL, as it's basically extreme low-self-esteem lashing out, i.e. "he can't POSSIBLY want me for me". AND her parents are just "flat" evil, i.e. you don't follow our orders, so you're worthless. it doesn't even seem to be for financial gain, but just outright control. That's just STUPID evil. 3.5/5
