Representation: Black Biracial supporting character

Single Sentence Review: A gut-wrenching, tear-jerker of a romance novel that transforms itself into a book of healing and convincing second chance love–although, its enjoyability is severely limited by the frustrating characterization of its Heroine.

Safety Rating: Not Safe

• No cheating 
• No OW/OM drama
— But the Heroine’s husband dies from cancer at ~30% into the novel. So, the reader gets his POV. He’s really the first Hero. 
— The Hero (who the Heroine eventually gets with) is also grieving *his* dead wife
• Does have the Heroine pushing the Hero away
• No separation 

Note: the Safety Rating is Not Safe because the reader reads the Heroine’s husband — who she’s very much in love with — die on-page in both their POVs.


Possible Triggers: Yes

• Cancer
• Death of loved ones 
• Grief 
• Depression 
• Suicidal ideation 
• References of miscarriage


Ending:
HEA (married and expecting a baby)
