I love Linden but there was serious lack of dramatic tension here. Most probably due to the “fall in lust” bit, so I didn't feel like their relationship was challenging enough to weather any storm. Also, aside from a series of disapproving relatives, the couple didn't have much obstacles in the way of their romance - so, hardly any suspense or tension in the story.
