This is a very sweet and delicate book, when I said delicate I mean it like you will feel scared for Alex or Ellie because both parties are on a thread of something coming towards the end or of something new. It's like walking on eggshells because its like you don't know what's gonna happen, Alex does something stupid or he does something right but then waiting for the shoe to drop. The romance was very sweet but heartbreaking at the same time. The plots that encountered not only with Alex but with Ellie was very unfortunate for both of them to ever have a happily ever after. I love the characters, especially Alex and Ellie.

I could relate to Alex in a way for not being the brightest and shitty timing because I'm that way too. I'm not bright but I can be smart not realizing it.

Ellie is a strong female character who stands her ground & stays true to herself. Family and tradition was highly mentioned to be the most important aspect in their lives which I love wholeheartedly!
The reason why I'm not giving it a high rating like 4 is because I had a hard time empathizing the romance with the main characters. I could understand partial of it but it was just not clicking to me, I don't find a flaw in the book whatsoever but I want to be honest with myself.

This book was just not for me but I'd highly still suggest to romance lovers, it's sweet and heartbreaking but its not sad either! Just saying your heart will be tugged maybe?
Thank you for A.S Kelly and your team for giving me this digital arc copy for an honest review!
