Wanted to like this much more than I did

I don't know if it's due to the line - this was my first Howls romance - or just due to the story, but this book wasn't up to par with Ms. Chant's recent work. The plot was somewhat simplistic and predictable. I didn't really connect with any of the characters, nor did I feel there was any growth to them over the course of the story. The book wasn't terrible, but I was honestly expecting to enjoy it a lot more than I did.
