This presents the perfect template of a man, a relationship, and of life. I literally don't know what to say. Five stars isn't enough. I feel like Sheldon from Big Bang Theory with all those gift baskets still coming up short. This deserves all the stars. I need everyone to pick up this book and read it and learn from it and pick themselves up and live for this moment, this now, because that's all we know of for sure. My heart is beating so fast cause I'm just tearing up thinking about the beautiful love and care and joy in this book. I don't know how I'm ever going to read romance the same again.

And this is where it is both brilliant and stressful (particularly for those who’ve experienced medical trauma, as a patient or as a caregiver - Neevah and Canon’s experiences give us perspective on both). Neevah’s experience of chronic illness shows us the highs and lows - the days she feels well and capable and strong, and the days her immune system escalates attacks on her organs, threatening her ability to work and forcing her to reevaluate her priorities in all spheres of her life. Canon cycles through fear and anger, denial and hyperfixation, rest and action, balancing his love for Neevah with his fear for her health. Readers can rest easy that this is a low-conflict love story, in that the real conflict is the battle both protagonists must wage to keep Neevah well and define their love for each other.
