***I received an ARC, ahead of release, through Netgalley***
I was so curious how this story was going to go...I mean married but estranged for 8 years?! There was no way to know how it was going to play out...
I mean childhood friends to lovers then estranged 8 years...into a second chance romance...this was such an interesting concept and I love how Jodie played it out.
Both Mira and Leo have to do a lot of self evaluation and have some really difficult conversations with each other. Both felt that they were individually responsible for Leo leaving which caused them both to face years of feeling inadequate and depressed about the relationship.
Overall I really enjoyed the story and was happy to see how it ended. 💜
