A decent 4.5⭐️ for me. It was on track to be a 5⭐️ read for me. However, I didn’t like the 3rd act breakup scene at the hospital with Rowan ending things. I appreciate Zahra not forgiving him so easily. I just thought besides his previous efforts and apologizing after the board meeting, there should’ve been more. She forgave him and they had sex. I did enjoy both epilogues, so that made me feel a bit better.

Not great. I didn’t like Rowan. I listened to the audiobook and his voice was so deep it was cringey. He was so emotionally unavailable. Zahra was not a well written character. She was often described as sunny and cheerful but she was very sassy. Also, when she yelled at Rowan’s father at the end that made no sense!!!!! Both Zahra and Rowan were so unprofessional. I didn’t really like this book but I might still continue with the series because I’m interested in the other two brothers.

This book had two of my top 3 least favorite tropes: age gap and secret keeping, and yet for most of it I found myself giggling and kicking my feet. Zahra was so kind and optimistic and deserved every good thing in the world. Rowan was understandably closed off and suspicious. Together, they made each other better and pushed each other to grow. I understood Rowan's desire to figure out if Zahra liked him for him and wanted to know if she was going to try to blackmail him or something for the first kiss, so his alter-ego made sense. But, it didn't hurt any less when she found out. I loved the friendship he developed with her sister; that was the best thing that happened to him. I was pissed when he broke up with her in the hospital. Are. You. Kidding. Me. He deserved every bit of pain and suffering he was feeling and every hour of lost sleep. The only thing that could have possible saved him was that final presentation and doing the right thing. Martha was the real MVP during that, for the both of them. Zahra telling off his father was just icing on the cake. He needed to grow up, and Zahra and Ani helped him do that, but more, the different relationships he built with the sisters helped him to come to terms with his relationship with his father which is what he needed. I was mad off and on during this book, but I enjoyed it and will be reading the next book in the series.
