Thank you MIRA for sending me an ARC of this book.
From the very start I knew I was going to love this book. I don't know how Alina Khawaja did it but she may be the reason I start reading romance novels more often.
I loved every second of this book, from the humor to the immersion it gave me. I couldn't put this book down until I would get tired and then I would continue reading the very next day to do it again.
I also loved how it's not just about romance, but also family, culture, and personal growth. I aspire to grow as a person just like Maya does in this book. (And also find love like her, though hopefully not through being stranded in a completely different country)
