My Saving Grace by Melanie Moreland
emotional
medium-paced
4.0
Representation: Gay supporting character
I received My Saving Grace through Melanie Moreland's team in exchange for an honest review.
Quick Take: A poignant forbidden romance packed with some classic romance tropes: married in Vegas, grumpy Hero, employee-boss relationship and a second chance romance. The novel is riddled with angst and sweet moments and explores what it means to find The One at the exact wrong time and a Hero who will do all he can to win his girl back. Unfortunately, the plot suffers from dumb misunderstanding/mistake-syndrome which detracted from my enjoyment of the novel.
