escapismforlife's review

This book was deep.  Even the romantic relationship had more depth added on top of it being a modern day love story. I mean of course with everything  
 Anna is dealing with in her present. And what Quan's gone through and is now getting used to while being a comfort  person  for Anna suddenly.  

 The issues dealt with are done in the most beautiful  way. But there could've been further  explanation  at points throughout this contemporary  story. Having just read this one there was little I knew though. But it seemed very concentrated on both characters  being comfortable and supportive  for each other .  And in the end I think that was the best end for this standalone series  book.

This was my favorite in the series! It was so raw and emotional. I loved the characters, and I can tell the author's skill is growing. Beautiful
