The book was great and easy to read. As someone who experiences anxiety the trigger warnings were accurate. I did struggle getting through some spots because of the triggers, but overall the experience was good. If you don’t struggle with anxiety I say go for it read it, but if you struggle with anxiety and have triggers I would say to tread carefully. I read this book in less than 10h it was that good.

From start to end I loved this book! This book pulled me out of the worst reading slump that has spanned months. The story and romance are so amazing and I so wish that Dana will continue more books in this world/family. Also I got all the way to the end and something just told me to read the acknowledgments which I usually don’t do, and it was like a message from the universe. If you know you know. Thank you so much for this read Dana Isaly, so much love for you!
