”i think i want to forget everything i thought i knew and instead learn something new with him.“

may and raf were so freaking cute together! their banter and push-and-pull relationship prior to finally getting together kept me on my toes and i was living for it. 

i adored may’s cottage, and the way it was described was perfect, so much so that i could see it in my head and now i want to live there. her obsession with mugs was adorable and so meaningful, especially when raf ended up getting her one for his own house just for her. i totally understood her apprehension when it came to relationships, specifically with men, and i didn’t blame her for being closed off at all. after what she’d been through, she absolutely deserved raf and his big heart. 

raf felt like such a golden retriever to me, even when he was trying his hardest to hate may (he couldn’t). i love a mmc that’s tortured by one woman he can’t get out of his head. his willingness to be patient and wait for the woman he wanted was everything that may deserved, and she was everything that he deserved. when it came to his restaurant, he just needed a little push from someone that meant something to him, even if he didn’t realise that person was may at first, she truly brought out the best in him. 

thank you so much to luna literary management and the author for the e-arc! 🌙
