This book was a bit of a slow start for me to get into but once things picked up between Feyi and Alim I got into the story a lot more. I am not usually one to read an age gap romance but this one was tender, I found myself easily rooting for the couple. This book’s representation of grief was well done and Feyi’s journey with her grief is more so the A plot with the romance serving B plot. I would recommend this book
Graphic: Death, Misogyny, Grief, and Car accident
