africreole's review against another edition

What an emotionally charged story!
Stacey Lane Bryant was an emotional cripple after the accidental death of her astrophysicist husband Drew. She felt responsible for his death and shut off from the world until she met Dr. Hunter Fourakis. She tried hard to shut him down when they met but he ended up helping her with her writer's block instead. I almost fell out of my chair when he turned out to be her OBGyn. I thought I would die laughing at the irony of it.
It turned out that Hunter and Stacey had more in common than she thought. Hunter was also a widower. Together, they managed to heal from their grief and help each other come back to life and feel alive again, something they thought would never happen again, they fell in love with each other. They needed each other. They missed the closeness that they had with their spouses, but this, their love was well worth the wait. With each other, their desire finally returned to full life.
There was only one BIG problem, his family. They were strict culturist Greeks. They can almost expected Hunter to marry a. No one was good enough for their Hunter, including his deceased wife Corina who was Greek but grew up from the wrong side of the tracks. Everyone woman they tried to set him up with was too concerned about appearance and prestige, it made him sick. Stacey was the only thing that was giving him balance in his life. She helped him with the closure he needed with Corina. He did the same with Stacey, by helping with her anxiety surrounding Drew's death.
Latrivi wrote a heartbreaking story that turned into a sweet love story. It was about how people deal with grief in their own ways and how they get normalcy back to their lives with the support of the people they love. I just love how Stacey put his family in check with grace and elegance. With her being a writer having an extended way with words, they did not even realized they were being handled. She just had to let them know that she was more accomplished in her life than they all were put together. She was not an ordinary African American woman let alone an ordinary person. She was Dr. Hunter Fourakis' angel who gave him his HEA and his opa.

Yes! Yes all day. They are both widows, there’s a meet-cute, love is conquering all sorts of obstacles and family problems. I’m not going to do a proper review on this one because I don’t want to give anything away. It’s really sweet how the story unfolds.
