I know some people are gonna disagree but I’m not sorry when I say that Grayson and Lyra’s “romance” was not well thought out. The set up was perfect though. A mysterious girl whose past has ties with a man who happens to be the grandfather of the boy she’s meant to fall in love with. A dark and twisted past that has left her questioning her life and her feelings. Absolute perfection. But the unnatural change in character for Grayson was just too unrealistic. I wanted Grayson to find love ever since Avery picked Jameson but the way Jennifer went about it was just not right.
They only spoke three times over a phone, with each time being very short. Then they finally met in person and on that very same day Grayson goes from being professional to telling her his past experiences as a child and then going as far as to call her “sweetheart” IN. ONE. DAY. Yeah, this isn’t even unrealistic to his character alone, this is just unrealistic in general.
Then there’s the ending- oh my goodness. The very next day they had discovered that an imposter of sorts was on the island and everyone’s lives could very well be at stake and what do they do mid conversation? Why of course, they decide to kiss. Excuse me?? No, just no. I waited so long for Grayson to find his someone and I was, unfortunately, very disappointed.
