I enjoyed reading the review for the book, and it has further cemented my decision to read it. I am interesting to see how the romance developes between the two characters.

I have realized that in life, childhood enemies turns out to be the best of friends. This is an amazing tale.

I like Ayza's mother's advice about living life to the fullest with love, fun and laughter. It's a romantic book I will enjoy reading.

Stories that manage to capture the essence of life such as joyfulness, laughter and sadness need to be read, and if they include childhood neighbors that turn into lovers, they must be read. Thanks for the review!

I'm not really into romances. Still, I like that this romance takes place in Pakistan as opposed to somewhere like Paris, Rome, or some American countryside. The different cultural perspective would make the book more interesting, so I'll still consider it. Thank you for the thorough review.

So far this one is good. The sample had me going. I felt like I was sitting in the coffee shop looking at each person.

I read your review before I read the sample and I have to say I can see how you can connect with this story and its characters. From what you put in your review, it looks as though this book gives a chance to see what can be made of life with two people that seem to be completely different. Sometimes having so many things different, is what makes the relationship so strong. Because you learn from that other person and look from their point of view as well as your own.

Great review, seems like a good book, esp because it's set in a different country.
