This book. Wow. I am not usually someone who is moved to legit tears while reading, but this book broke me and put me back together again about five different times. While the romance is a large part of the novel, there is also a lot of personal reflection and healing that the heroine experiences. I was honestly expecting a fluffy "beach read" of a book, and while this was gushy and romantic and sugary sweet at times, it also delved into some heavy topics, but they matched the characters well, and I'm glad we got to see so much growth throughout the book.
