Lauren Asher’s writing is tastefully diverse, and this novel just proves that tenfold. Not only are the mc’s racially diverse, but the attention to detail regarding Huntingtons disease and Alzheimers are impressive. Considering both are genetic illnesses, it adds an extra level of curiosity to the future of Jax & Elena.

 “I don’t want to be picture-perfect with you. I want to be a mosaic, made up of broken pieces so damn colourful, you can’t help finding them beautiful.”
 
 Jax is a broody and seemingly cold man who has secretly always struggled with anxiety and the pressures of the F1 race car driving make him seek salvation in pills and alcohol. After one particular bad stunt at a bar, his team decided to hire a personal PR specialist for him. Enter Elena, a no-bullshit woman, who sure as hell isn't going to be scared off a job she needs to keep her head up float just because of a moody client. What will they do when their close confinement starts turning their dislike for each other into something more?

 I can't believe how much I loved this book. Lauren Asher is starting to become one of my instant-read authors. I think this book very beautifully described the different struggles people face while dealing with their pasts, futures and nows. This was a heavier and more emotional book than the first two. My heart broke so many times while reading about Jax and Elena and I deeply felt for both of them. I cried multiple times while reading the book, it touched me deeply. I wish all the best for them and I want them to live their lives being the happiest of people. Can't wait to read Santi's book and see what he brings to the table!
