As someone who’s a people pleaser, has PTSD and panic attacks, and has taken a break from dating, I related a lot to Katrina and I think she was written with grace and care. “She’d never been a shy person, even if life had made her wary” hit me hard. This book had a lot of great representation and the world Alisha Rai has built an accurately diverse world in her modern love series. 

I really really loved most of this, but it started to lose me at the end. I wanted more out of their story. I almost wanted a third act breakup? Which is something I don’t usually want. Also while I love that both characters have their own personal story lines, I didn’t enjoy that they were going through very similar struggles, especially since it went into Kat’s experiences with PTSD much more than Jas’s. I also don’t love incarceration in books. However the very last scene is very well done and I thoroughly enjoyed how it (and the other spicy scenes) deviated from the standard romance genre spicy scenes. 

Super sweet but still definitely check trigger warnings for this one!
