Not just romance, this story delves into those intricate relationships in our lives. It's about coming of age and realizing the things that are important to hold onto.
I adore any book that features a writer at the heart of its story and what could be better than a travel writer. I am intrigued to know how well her relationship will stand once there is distance between Zara and Matt, however, being miles away.
Looks like fun!
Interesting cover and book ideas.
Something about the cover makes this seem like a fun contemporary romance. I enjoy great romantic stories with some humor tossed in.
Sounds interesting!
Fabulous tropical setting with the story of Zara and Matthew--highly enjoyable!
Thessa Lim gives you an office romance that is bittersweet. Zara Castillo has everything and even found the ideal man in Matthew, except that with her work and her own personal demons, her relationship is in testy waters. The only one who can sort our her demons is Zara and she has to make that choice before she loses the man she loves. I think she captures Manila very well, since I studied there it made me nostalgic.
A wonderful story of love and forgiveness! Highly recommended.
An interesting cover. Very different, makes me want to study it ...like a painting. I like it!! :-)
