This was such a good book! The characters and story feel natural and the emotional beats don't feel forced. Often times traumatic or complicated backstories can feel contrived, but the author does a great job conveying the facts in an honest way that allows the depth of emotions to gradually be revealed through her storytelling.
It's such a heartwarming story about healing and finding your place in the world. I stayed up all night reading it even when it had me sobbing at 3am.

Really liked - The story kept me fully engaged from start to end even though the plot was predictable.
A romance with heart and spirit where the sexy times were not overdone like a lot of the romances I have been reading lately. This is the first romance book where I actually saw a real diverse ensemble of characters that had a purpose in the story, rather than being the sidekick fill in characters. I was just as involved with the side characters as I was with Chloe and Warren.
Favourite Quote
"I’m peace to you?” I ask. He nods, pulling his lips into his mouth with a creased brow. “Well, you’re my home."
Favourite scene
"I kept every key from my life before. Eight keys to eight different homes." Chloe explaining all her keys and then reduces to having one key for the home she now has with Warren.
