One of the most beautifully written books I have ever read! The author leaves you breathless and hanging on to the edge of your seat until the very end! I found myself yelling at parts and cheering out loud!

As a long-time fan of romance novels, is so refreshing to read about people that aren’t just about the same as others!

Me gustó mucho. Es un libro que habla sobre muchos temas importantes entre ellos el autismo. Y me pareció magnífica la forma en la que ella manejó el tema. Hay muchos mensajes preciosos y enseñanzas que me dejó este libro.
Esme es una chica bastante fuerte, luchadora y decidida. No dudó en ningún momento de su valor y de lo que se merecía. Khai es un chico muy tierno que tiene un conflicto consigo mismo pero a pesar de eso sentí todo lo que él sintió.
La trama es súper enganchante y la escritura de la autora también lo es. Aunque empecé mal

Eu comecei o livro achando que não seria melhor que o primeiro da série mas gsuis como eu me apaixonei por esses personagens, chorei tanto de felicidade e tristeza por eles, e no final eu só queria poder abraçar eles. Eu não sei dizer se a representação autista e também vietnamita mas ao longo do livro não tem como negar que a autora fez o melhor que pode, e depois de o porque ela escreveu dessa forma tudo ficou ainda mais emocionante.
Já tô ansiosa pro lançamento do próximo livro ♡

A good book but the story was uneven somehow. My sense of Esme and Kai was a little disjointed. I found part of the time I wasn't sure if I liked Esme and felt frustrated at how she refused to talk about her feelings or situation with Khai. However, whenever he did not communicate with her she would get so angry with him because of her insecurities about her self-worth. I like that it was an immigrant story but did feel that it made everything come out a little too easily. I don't think most immigrant stories are so fairy tale-esque. Maybe that is okay though. Maybe all immigrants need a little fairy tale in their life...
