Thanks to Avon Books for the free copy of this book.

 - FIRST COMES LIKE is a wonderfully soft and gentle romance novel. The two leads are so kind to each other, even when trying to figure out the strange, false circumstances of their meeting.
- Dev and Jia are such a great pair, supporting each other through complicated family dynamics without a second thought.
- The real best part of this book, though, is that there is NO THIRD ACT BREAKUP. Just a miscommunication that is quickly solved when they talk to each other about it! The best.
