Description

Depois que um vídeo seu tocando violino viraliza, Anna Sun não consegue repetir o sucesso e fica à beira de um burnout. Para piorar, seu namorado anuncia que quer tentar uma relação aberta antes de se comprometer de vez com ela. Magoada e brava, Anna decide que, se Julian quer uma relação aberta, é isso que ele vai ter. Ela está pronta para embarcar numa maratona de encontros — quanto mais inadequados forem os parceiros, melhor.

Mas então ela conhece o motoqueiro tatuado Quan Diep. Embora os dois estejam procurando sexo casual, eles falham na primeira noite. Depois na segunda. E na terceira. A verdade é que Anna logo percebe que Quan é mais do que sexo e que ele a aceita como ela é. Entretanto, quando uma tragédia se abate sobre a família de Anna, ela é obrigada a assumir um papel que nunca desejou, e o peso das expectativas ameaça esmagá-la. Anna e Quan querem lutar por esse amor, mas, para fazer isso, primeiro precisam lutar por si próprios.

This was such an emotional rollercoaster, and I loved it so much. However, I wasn't prepared for the heaviness of the family and personal trauma - it worked for me, but I can understand how it might not be for people who were expecting (like me) a light rom-com. The struggles both characters were facing were real and tangible and when Anna found out something personal - her reaction was so raw it deeply moved me. I would have loved to dive deeper into Quan's family and struggles, but at the same time, I felt very connected to Anna in many ways - including her anxiety and people-pleasing ways- that I also appreciated the deep dive into her mind and perspective. I also loved that this book featured two Asian Americans and opened up the conversation about caregiving and burnout and different family dynamics. This book is deeply personal, as described in the author's note, and the emotion and heart put into this were palpable. A deeply moving and heartfelt story that I wholeheartedly recommend - as long as you don't expect a fun, light read.

Truly love this series. Everything is so relatable. Only gripe I have is that, after the romance is achieved, nothing else is resolved.Can we please actually finish the family plot line? Pretty please?

I know this is book three to a series but I was told the previous books were not needed to get this book BUT after reading this book I want to go back and read those two books. I loved this book so much. My favorite part of romance is how relatable characters can be. That was my favorite thing about reading Anna's perspective. I felt like I could relate to a lot that she felt and went through. I also saw some similarities to Quan and my own boyfriend. I enjoyed that the author made this book very real and included real life situations like burnout, therapy, people pleasing. All things that once again made this book relatable. The romance in this was phenomenal. There was a few moments were I got upset at the characters but thankfully that got resolved. 10/10 I woulf recommend this book!
