There is something about Mia’s writing that is going to do it for me every time. She has such a beautiful way of telling a story and this one was no different. Emotional, childhood friends to lovers, and growing from childhood trauma. A great read that I would highly recommend!

I loved this book it just didn’t seem like there was a plot to it. The whole story was Callen suffering with his problems and overcoming them. 

I love their story when they were kids at the boxcar. I love how they would go on adventures and how they still mention it even when they were adults. I love how they call each other prince and princess. I hate how he became a whore and how he even slept with a girl to start his career. I hated when he got drunk and the way he would to Jessie he was so mean and he would literally insult her. There was a point when I didn’t want him but ofc he became a man and that made him my husband. I’m glad he continued his career as a composer after everyone knowing he was illiterate. I’m glad he opened his eyes as say that God helped him all along. I love the dog she’s so cute. I’m glad he was able to write and that love letter he sent to Jessie was everything (although I don’t have to say I expected a bit more but it’s understandable). Franky is just a good friend I love her and I love more Nick he literally MADE time although he’s scheduled was full. I love how they had a kid and I know he’ll be an amazing father he even said it. The only thing I probably didn’t like was that there wasn’t a plot but other than that I loved it. I loved how he would get jealous although spying her is kinda scary but it shows how he loves her but like the kiss the other dude gave Jessi was kinda not it he sounded like a pick me after. At first I didn’t like the readings of Joan of Arc but slowly I started to like. I love how her story ended and how she was able to escape to with man and not marry someone she didn’t love. I kinda would’ve wished to not know the ended so the ending could be written with Jessi’s life but either way I loved it. The house Callen brought because Jessie loves history is too cute. I love how he thought of her when buying it
