Messy, emotional, and real
This book was outside my regular genre and it blew me away. I’m now a Kennedy Ryan fan because her voice is so powerful and beautiful. This is a second chance romance that feels messy, emotional, and real in the best way. Josiah completely stole my heart, especially when he described Yasmin’s changing beauty 😍. He is such a strong Black man who grew up believing he had to carry everything alone and that therapy would not help him. Seeing him start therapy for his son and then realizing how much healing it brought to himself was one of my favorite parts of the story. The characters are complicated and their struggles feel honest. As someone who has been through infertility, I felt deeply connected to Yasmin’s pain. It is something no one can fully understand, not even your partner, and that made her journey hit so hard for me. We also get the forced proximity and one room trope, and the chemistry between Yasmin and Josiah is off the charts. Their love is raw, passionate, and stubbornly resilient. It is truly “til the wheels fall off.” I wish we could have seen more of Yasmin’s growth on the page, but Josiah’s arc through therapy was unforgettable. This book reminded me how important it is to read outside my comfort zone. Kennedy Ryan gave me a story that was vulnerable, layered, and impossible to put down.

Love it
This is my first book by Kennedy Ryan and I love it. Yasmen went through a lot of grief and depression with the loss of someone close to her. But once she got the help she needed, she was a completely different woman. With all of the new changes, she started to re-kindle the feelings for her ex-husband. Read the book to find out what happens.

Devoured
I really loved reading about the push and pull between Yasmen and Josiah. Even after everything that happened they still chose to fight for their relationship in the end. They both were hurt due to loss, and ended up finding different ways of dealing (conscious/unconsciously) with it. I can't wait to read the rest of the series.
