Rating: 1⭐️

*the book is too long for no reason
*i wanted to kick the fmc for being so dump , how can u be in love with a guy u met three weeks ago and a guy who keeps pushing you away and tells you he doesnt want a relationship!!!
*i usually dont mind the dead wife trope but it really bothered me here
*one of the most stupidest fmc i have ever read abt , she told him she loved him(again only after 3 weeks knowinghim) , he didnt say it back, they were supposed to part ways after a month cause he was going to deploy but he told her to stay and wait for him and she just said ok. Idiot.
*i dont know how she stayed even after knowing he was still in love with his deceased wife. I mean he literally told her:
“Baby. I’m so fucking selfish. You deserve someone who’s going to fall head over heels in love with you. Marry you and spend the rest of his life giving you everything you’ve ever wanted. I can’t love you. I can’t love anyone again. But I want you. I want you so bad that it feels like any moment without you is empty.”
And she still told him she loved him and it was fine. This happens 75% in.
*i hate blaming her , but i hate it when the fmc let the mmc walk all over them, stand up for your self goddamit , you dont need him. Its one think if he didnt what to move on from his wife but why tell her to say?.He is selfish, a coward, manhandled her, let her know that its his how and she had no say in anything, broke up with her and kicked her out like a dog, and she still took him back. And all he did is ask her to forgive him, nothing else. nada. No groveling Pathetic.
*it was painful to finished this book tbh, i only did to reach my 2022 goal

* no cheating
* Some om drama
* No ow drama( but there is mentions of his dead wife and he didnt move on until around %)
