The death of Betty's abusive husband paves the path for Mr. Chetan to enter Betty and Solo's lives, and they slowly form such a strong bond and open up about their intimate secrets. We see them morph together as they occupy this unorthodox dynamic.
The writing won't blow you away, I'd recommend the audiobook narrated by the author, infused with warmth from the Trini accent, and you'll find yourself chuckling at the shenanigan. At some point, the story dragged and lost its rhythm, the case with books that shift perspectives you'll prefer some to others. I still had a lovely time with these characters.

This book is a lot slower paced than what I prefer, which attenuated my enjoyment of Love After Love. Part 3 delivered on a satisfying and haunting conclusion. I greatly enjoyed the use of Trinidad dialect. I felt like I stepped right onto the island itself.
