This book felt sooooo good. It was a nice slow burn that allowed the longing between Josiah and Yasmen to become palpable to the reader. The teenaged angst of Deja and innocence of younger brother, Kassim is very relatable to readers as well. This story envelopes the reader in a warm embrace from the first sentence to the last. If you have the pleasure of listening to the audiobook, I highly recommend doing so as the narration is beautifully done by Jakobi Diem and Wesleigh Siobhan. Chef’s Kiss!
