This cover is very pretty. The ring is a good representation of the story. The composition is good. It has interesting typography. I especially like how the flower petals and ring are weaved into it.
I ADORED every single second of this book. It was fantastically well written. It was nicely paced. Had an interesting and intricate plot. This is one of those books that goes back and forth from the past to the present. I'm usually not a fan of that because I end up more invested in the present than the past. In this one, it worked extremely well. We needed the background laid for this couple to see how things progressed to the current situation. The author did such a good job of blending the two that both kept me equally interested.
Both main characters were very likable. Mateo was the epitome of the perfect book boyfriend. My heart absolutely shattered for this guy. I can't say too much without giving the plot away but this man's love and devotion never for not even a SECOND wavers. Ava was a bit harder to like. At first, I found myself getting mad at her. Here you have this perfect guy, so her anger and hurt confused me. But as the author peeled back layers I warmed up to her pretty quickly and when the truth finally comes out my heart shattered for all the time these two had taken away.
On top of all the above goodness, we also get a strong family connections book. I am beyond excited to read the coming up books for ALL these Cruz brothers. Really there is nothing else left for me to say. This one gets two HUGE HUGE thumbs up from yours truly.
