Another book in the beautiful Rajes series. This one follows Vansh, the youngest of the Rajes and Naina, who is Yash's (Vanshs brother) ex. The dramas and sneaking ensues.
Sadly in this book I did not connect with the characters quite like I did the previous books in there series but there still were many aspects i liked. Like Dev's other books in the series this one ties together many different subjects, tones and dynamics.
Like the previous books there is a mixture of dark yet also funny and lighthearted undertones. It touches on serious subjects such as domestic violence and toxic relationships but also showcases journeys of self discovery, healing and learning to grow and keep healthy relationships. Like the rest of the Raje series the family as a whole does play a large role in this book and I think we are also setting up for Eshas book in this one.
I liked the challenge's both Vansh and Naina faced within themselves and together, I also enjoyed the age gap in this one and also the character growth with these two was awesome! Although not my favourite in the series I would definitely still recommend it and I will carry on with the series because to me now it gives me such a comfort to delve back in to Raje family with each read.
