Actual Rating: 3.75

This needed to be fleshed out a littleee more and I felt rushed by the ending. I did enjoy the individual characters and the relationships in the book, although it's always frustrating reading non-halal romances with Muslim characters. I do think the other aspects of religion and culture were done well and I could really emphasize with Zahra's sense of responsibility for her family. Overall, this just needed more work.

I received an e-arc of this title from the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
