First of all, I fell in love with the cover and knew this was going to be a love triangle story that I needed to read and it definitely didn’t disappoint.
Dr. Josephine Boateng was not only a doctor but an influencer who has been “adopted” into her best friend Ezra Adelman’s wealthy family. Due to issues with her mother, this Ghandian-American emancipated herself from her at age 16. When she met Ezra in college they because close friends but she fell in love with him along the way and stuck by her best friend’s side while he dated several women. Jo hid her feelings but always wanted something more.
In walks Malcom Waters into her life. Mal is a writer and photographer who is 2 years out a 10 year relationship. He meets Jo who gives him the confidence to step outside the box with his career and to speak up for himself. Her beauty and her assertiveness makes him fall for her. But with her feelings for her best friend Ezra and Jo not really knowing what love is, will Mal’s feelings be reciprocated? Will Ezra finally see what’s been right in front of him for years?
I absolutely loved this but I wanted more🤣
