Gripping and enjoyable to read. Would like more character development. Would recommend for anyone looking for a romance with a plot point that keeps you on the edge of your seat

Another solid read from TJR - she never fails to tell a compelling story. I feel in trusted hands when picking up one of hers. 

The Good: 
- Joan’s relationship with her niece
- the central relationship, 
- dual-timeline structure*, 
- writing, 
- concepts of found family and LGBTQIA representation
- ends very strong finding that emotional resonance 

The less Good: 
- overwhelming number of characters
- “in media res” beginning (took emotional sting of that moment out)
- outside of “in media res”, slower paced beginnings
