About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a breezy, feel-good rom-com with an enemies-to-lovers vibe, lots of misunderstandings, and family comedy; Not for you if you dislike implausible premises or broad humor like in Housesitter.
Pros: big laughs; sweet romance; fun family chaos | Cons: far-fetched setup; dated jokes; uneven pacing
