I loved how despite their instant connection, things weren't instantly easy, and that they had to put in work to get themselves individually to a point where they could support a healthy relationship with each other.

The SA/Rape incident occurred prior to the events of the book, but are discussed as an important part of them healing and being comfortable in a relationship. Pregnancy is of a side character, mentioned occasionally.alexkudej's review

Two points of note:
2. This point also has to do with how the other characters dismissed the sexual assault. This quote left me reeling:
“"This is how you treat your friend? I've been here for you, Yash, always. I've taken care of you. Have you forgotten what happened when you trusted another woman? You ended up drugged and caught on tape
fucking an underage intern. Even then I was there for you. I didn't bat an eyelid. Through all your trust issues I was there making sure you were okay, working around it, tiptoeing around all your physical issues.”
This complete and utter dismissal of the trauma he went through was horrific. What’s worse is that it is never addressed again. That would be moderately okay if Nisha and her words were written in a more negative light. However, I just looked and she is going to be the heroine in the next book in the series. I honestly think that because of this quote I won’t be able to read the next book at all. I have loved this series so much, but I just don’t think I can tolerate reading and attempting to root for a character like that.
Overall, I loved the book.
