I had some issues with the pacing and struggled with keeping track of the passage of time. I wish the letters had been dated, or there had been other clear markers between events. Questionable decisions and lack of communication aside, I was won over by the characters' chemistry and care for each other.

The one thing I didn't enjoy was the part about organ donation. It felt forced to me.
I would definitely recommend it to anyone who likes romance novels that are on the more realistic side and who like a slow burn
