Beautiful story.. I felt so many emotions reading this book, and got really invested in their story. I normally don’t like love stories initiated by affairs, but this one made sense in terms of an arranged marriage that you never wanted to begin with. I loved Ashlyn’s journey, seeing Belle come to terms with the truth, and just how everything wrapped up in the end. Barbara has a new fan out me! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
