I really loved this romance! The conflicts and problems the couple faces are realistic and serious, and I love when romance books involve the main character’s friends, work, family etc. Basically, this is a sweet romance that is based in reality, and the characters are in their 30s so it’s a bit more relatable for me. 

Naya’s ex, Davis is a piece of trash so trigger warnings whenever his character is involved. Just be aware that there is intimate partner violence and verbal/emotional abuse discussed on the page. Naya’s journey of processing her trauma and healing is rewarding to read, and I appreciated the scenes where she stood up for herself. 

CW: misogyny, intimate partner abuse, verbal abuse, trash ex-boyfriends, overly confident but incompetent white men.
