Not me crying over a book again 🥲 I will forgive that third act breakup only because I could truly understand the fear underlining that decision. 

This friends-to-lovers story swept me away and I am so in love with love after reading Ni and Isaac’s story! The warmth and deep care that underlined their interactions made me feel so many things. The chemistry of a lifelong friendship is just unmatched, and watching them shift to a romantic relationship was beautiful.

I also really appreciate Riss’s incorporation of medical negligence and how women of color are statistically misdiagnosed and experience a higher rate of delayed diagnosis. That aspect added a gravity to this romance that reminds me Tia William’s Seven Days in June. 

I was lucky enough to receive an arc for this and there are a few mistakes I caught that I’m certain will be fixed for its pub date. But overall, a new favorite romance for me and I hope Riss writes more in this genre!!
