Review Quotes

"Cole has crafted yet another love story you can't wait to dive into headfirst. She hits on contemporary issues ranging from the heartbreak of being ghosted to far more serious questions of immigration law, tackling all of it with the empathy and pragmatism that has become a hallmark of her work. Simply by telling inclusive stories that matter to her, Cole is breaking down barriers in mainstream romance publishing... a story that could have filled a whole novel in its heft and emotional depth." - Entertainment Weekly
