It takes a while to get acquainted with the writing style but not bad at all. Insta-lovey. Kindness is not a weakness (and I love that it's shown as a strength here), but, at times, the female MC felt subservient to a fault. Male mc was a bit self-absorbed and whiny but entertaining. It was always so satisfying when Kamran realized he didn't know everything. There are also some nice plot twists here and there.

You’ve to eat your vegetables to get to the good stuff. But I’ll read book two.
