    This story is pretty good; it feels like its title is a letdown! It's quite slice-of-life and realistic, with some sweet romance, but not much. It focuses more on friendship and family. It depicts a life filled with hardship and struggle, yet the characters persevere and remain strong. Genre: Contemporary Romance. Character Traits: Strong, Realistic, Independent. Main Relationship: Primarily Friendship. Rating: Five Stars!
