I loved the commentary on preserving your culture and generational differences. I honestly devoured this book. But it suffered from my typical problem with romance novels - namely that every problem could be solved by just communicating with each other. I found Azere's stubbornness a bit too on the nose, and neither her nor Rafael possessed any kind of empathy for each other's situations. When I read a book, I want to fall in love with the characters despite their flaws. Here the only character that I loved was Christina, and she suffered by having a strained relationship with Azere.
