The story balances tender moments with heavier emotional beats, and while parts felt predictable, the honesty of the writing kept me invested. This isn’t a fairytale romance—it’s messy, realistic, and sometimes uncomfortable in the best way.
A solid, heartfelt read that reminds you love isn’t always pretty, but it can still be meaningful.
