Is it a surprise I loved this? I’m sure I can find some weaknesses and I will try to put them here, but I definitely stand by my rating.
I am a huge fan of second chance romance so this was set to be a good story for me. Rico and Ashna’s story was definitely an emotional one. And I thought it was well-earned.
Ashna’s relationship with her mom was a pleasant surprise. I definitely liked how important it was to the plot. And I felt that was where a lot of the emotion came from. However, I would’ve preferred a more drawn out conclusion-the ending felt a little rushed.
Speaking of emotion: this was super emotional and made me cry several times. Ms. Dev deals with some complicated issues like suicide, marital rape, and anxiety. I find she’s very good at navigating these while having some levity and not overwhelming you.
I do hope Ms. Dev is able to continue to write in this world. I want to spend more time with the Rajes and I have so many questions I need answered.
Thanks for reading!
