Feyi is a widow going through the ups and downs of grief when she decides after five years of grieving her husband’s death in a tragic car accident (that she survived) to get back out there and get into the dating pool. Well, things get a bit…messy. I feel like we can all relate to Feyi to some degree. We have all been a mess, whether that is in relationships, friendships, just growing into the person you are now. 

I had heard mixed reviews on this one but honestly I loved it so much. It was a book I was recommended and it was amazing.
