becsa's review against another edition
3.0
Jasmine Lao is a nurse who has come from the Philippines to the US to become a doctor. Yet one night she stumbles upon The Bookstore where she is introduced to a whole new world that she was not expecting.
There she she sees a man and the chemistry is instant although they are both wearing masks and she doesn't know who he is. Then while working she meets Steven Gates, a man with cancer whom she hits it off and soon the two begin a relationship.
But Steven has secrets and soon they are revealed to Jasmine and she feels her life slip from out from beneath her. Then when things are finally in a good place everything disappears in an instance and Jasmine is left picking up the pieces but this time with help from Steven's brother, Nigel.
Will Jasmine be able to figure out where her heart resides and be able to pick up the pieces and find the place where she belongs?
I enjoyed this story but at times I found myself a little lost, especially at the beginning with The Bookstore. I knew what kind of club it was but I was unsure of what Jasmine had really done while in there besides dance.
Jasmine was hard working yet I think her sheltered life led her to The Bookstore and to Steven Gates. Steven did truly care about Jasmine and I felt bad when his secrets were revealed as he was hoping to have them dealt with by then.
I was definitely not expecting what happened to Steven the way it happened. Definitely threw me for a loop and then to discover Nigel. I kind of liked the link between Nigel and Jasmine and how they were already linked in a certain way. I did feel super bad for Jasmine with what happened with all the stress she was going through.
I was honestly a little confused at the end and felt like the story was quite completed yet and I wish everything could have been summed up for me!
