The first half of this book was immaculate. If you do not vibe with instalove or soulmates, definitely skip this title. Yujun is the Perfect Boyfriend (TM) but his lack of personality is made up in spades with Hara's personal journey of finding where she belongs as an adopted Korean child who was raised in Iowa. 

I felt like some answers to lingering questions were pretty obvious as it progressed, but I wasn't a big fan of how we got to those answers, nor how this story was concluded. There is a sequel.

That has the HEA, you will not find it here.

I will probably pick it up if only to see how they handle Hara's characterization at the start.
