This is the second book I’ve read from this author and I was not disappointed. I loved this book I liked how it had a speck of magical realism and I read it on audiobook and that narrator for Anita really sold the passion of the character.

I didn’t know it was a romance going in but it is most definitely that! I liked Rome and felt he was the perfect beau we all wish for someone to love us like Rome loves Janelle
