4.5 This book was marvellous. Only Therese Beharrie can write a second chance romance like this and have me loving it at the end. Actually, only she can write a friend's to lovers, fake relationship, second chance romance that I will utterly adore. This just hit me in the feels and had me ready to ignore my work to read just a little more. I mean, I finished it in one day and that is practically unheard of for me at the moment. All I can say is why did I wait so long to read because this was amazing? Zoey and Sawyer were so perfect together and bouncing from past to present so you could see what they were like and how they were now it really showed both their character growth but also the gaps they had in each of their lives with the absence of the other at their side.

Zoey Roux and Sawyer Wilson secretly got married six years ago, and it did not work out. Lingering grief issues and other complications could not stand up to Zoey and Sawyer's love. They broke apart, but never got divorced. Now, thrown back together at Zoey's charity event, is is time for a divorce or a reconciliation? Whew this is angsty. Flipping back to Zoey and Sawyer's early days of being married and to the present, watching these two hurt people find their love was emotional and ultimately fulfilling. Beharrie is a lyrical writer who makes you get down deep in the hurt but then always finds the light. Also! This was open door! I've not read an open door Beharrie before and it was lovely and sweetly awkward (both characters are virgins on their wedding night). CW pregnancy complications, grief Thank you to the publisher for the ARC!
