The Bold and the Beautiful (B&B) spoilers reveal that Hope Logan (Annika Noelle) and Carter Walton (Lawrence Saint-Victor) have let themselves get swept up in some intense feelings. In what felt like the blink of an eye, Carter and Hope went from friends to so much more.

Lawrence Saint-Victor is a talented performer, so we’ll give him plenty of credit for playing Carter’s newfound devotion to Hope.

Carter certainly looks at Hope like she’s the center of his world, so Saint-Victor is doing his part to sell this.

Annika Noelle is doing a great job on her end as well. Hope has finally found a guy she can count on, so Noelle’s been selling her character’s grateful relief.

That said, there’s only so much actors can do when the writing is flimsy!

Hope and Carter’s relationship was given no real build-up or substance at all, so this instant love story is flopping hard.

In the November 6 episode, Hope called Carter the man of her dreams before they ultimately exchanged love professions.

B&B was already moving way too fast, but now they’ve truly crossed into ridiculous territory.

In what universe should Carter and Hope already be declaring their love for each other?! We get that soap romances tend to move rapidly, but this storyline is taking things to a whole new level.

As a result, there’s definitely been fan backlash on social media.

Many viewers are calling the show out on their attempt to make Hope and Carter some grand love story without earning it.

Of course, some fans have been laughing at B&B for acting like Carter and Hope are madly in love after a handful of romantic episodes.

Others are genuinely irritated since this story would’ve been so much better with a little more preparation and time.

Hope really should’ve been leaning on Carter in the months that followed Thomas Forrester’s (Matthew Atkinson) departure – not fantasizing about John “Finn” Finnegan (Tanner Novlan) because of a one-sided crush.

As for Carter, he claims he’s had these feelings for Hope for quite a while, but he never gave off more than friendly vibes until recently.

Hope and Carter’s romance came out of nowhere, so it’s going to be tough for the CBS soap to build something that feels real now.

How do you feel about Carter and Hope’s rushed romance?

Do you think the show moved too quickly – especially by having Hope and Carter profess their mutual love?

Our predictions point to Carter and Hope continuing on this speedy path, so we’ll see if a fast marriage proposal might be coming up soon.

The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers say Hope and Carter’s relationship will make more waves as it moves along, so stay tuned for updates on any stunning news to come.
