MY REVIEW:

I feel like the description is a bit misleading with Nyla and Leo’s relationship. The blurb states that they are best friends but Leo is Nyla’s ex-brother-in-law. Which makes this a bit awkward. Especially since Nyla is really close with her sister.

But other than that this book was very captivating, once I started reading it I couldn’t put it down. And I just kept wanting more. But after reading some the relationship didn’t really work for me. I didn’t love that Nyla was with her sisters ex husband, just seem like there was too much conflict.

I liked Nyla at first but then not so much afterwards. At first it was endearing how she couldn’t keep a secret but after a while that got really old. Like you’re a grown woman and a nurse at that. Nurses have to protect patients privacy, that means no spilling of the beans.

And her constant bashing of herself for keeping secrets. Like over and over again. I get it at first but not every time we came back to this character she needed to be bashing herself. Or acting weird when people talk to her.

And the same thing with Leo at first I was into the character but less so as the book went on. He need to always do the right thing while admirable, kind of got old when he put everyone over himself and his first marriage. Putting everyone ahead of your self doesn’t really make for good relationships.

I found the conversations between of no real substance, just flirting and I get that these characters are suppose to know each other from before but they never knew each other in a romantic way so, since they were only brother and sister-in-law first. I feel like them talking more or just communicating about things going on would have helped them.

Then I found that the whole entire book dragged and then end was kind of rushed.

Although this book was captivating and I wanted to keep reading it, after a while I was ready to get it finished. This just wasn’t it for me.

WOULD I RECOMMEND:

If you can get into the relationship between the characters and the family then go for it.

It just wasn’t my cup of tea. I couldn’t get into the characters and that didn’t really help me enjoy.

I had to try really hard to finish the book.
