About this deal

I don’t typically read suspense romance- so I feel like I’m not the ideal audience for this book-but after reading it, I feel like Ria and Noah could totally have a duology book about them after all this chaos. I would love to see Ria (and Noah) in a healthy mental state. In this book- Ria was (understandably) severely distressed the entire time - and I really want to know her when she’s in a peaceful state also.

and i really appreciate that this wasn't at all about the sexual intimacy but rather the intimacy of mutual vulnerability and proper communication with emotional chemistry. it made their relationship seem very authentic and wholesome First, thank you to @ for allowing me to read her second book! So grateful for the ARC! Second, thank you to @ for convincing me to read this book with your amazing review! This book has so many, "I know him better than I know myself" and without any explanations that it drove me insane. Noah does clenches his fist; "its bc he wants to protect us, I know him" 😃 like????? ok.Writing-wise, I haven't read much books in the present tense so it was a bit hard for me at the start to get engaged. But overall, the descriptions and dialogues were easy to read and follow. it’s been a year since FBI Agent Noah Thomas has seen his wife, Alessandria, but now she stands only ten feet away from him.

Penulisnya kayaknya dari Filipina karena ada dua dialog yang pake bahasa tagalog dan ga di translate, bikin bingung. Penulisannya juga masih kurang rapih kayak ada beberapa paragraf yang harusnya ga di enter, malah di enter. the author did some amazing writing with a very limited story setting and tight atmosphere that just worked out perfectly However, I didn’t love the insta-love, love a first sight, etc. It made it hard to connect with Ria and Noah’s relationship and it made everything feel so rushed. Yeah, I agree with you Riaㅡ he deserves better. Aku awalnya udah tertarik sama cerita ini padahal karena liat reels orang, ternyata ekspektasiku terlalu tinggi. Ga jelas banget konfliknya. Keluarganya Ria ga banget deh, gila semua. Ribet pula bapaknya mau ketemu doang sampai drama.

Now for my thoughts. I was very confused when reading the plot initially, especially as it is described as romance suspense - but also gave off crime/thriller vibes?! But anyway, I think the book starts off the way every romance (cringy) story starts. A cute story between the two main characters, Ria and Noah. Also, shout out to the Filipinos, the representation was great in this book. I enjoyed this romantic suspense with a Filipino fmc, but wanted it to be she decides to "sacrifice," herself and go willingly to her roommate, who btw is out to get her, and when she's at gunpoint then she realizes that her husband deserves better :) and naturally he comes and saves the day. but after going into hiding, Ria’s in a dark place, not-to-mention vulnerable and no matter how much she tries to push him away, all Noah wants to do is take away her pain. because now that he’s found her, he’s not letting go, and Noah will do anything to protect what’s his.

Mina and Ben , i couldn't put in words how much you both are amazing humans .. you two deserve mere much happiness Ria and Noah met years ago when he came into her coffee shop every shift to see her. Their whirlwind romance meant soon after meeting and sleeping together, they moved to DC together so Noah could go through FBI training. They get married … and then a few years into their marriage, they are separated for a year and half, both believing the other left them. When they’re reunited - with their baby son - they discover their separation was for their own safety and that a criminal lord is after them both. Can they stay safe and repair their long broken relationship? It’s starts with Noah, an FBI agent, visiting Ria everyday at the coffee shop where she works, admiring her from afar. Then one day Ria say hello, and they instantly have a connection. They fall in love and fast forward 6 years later, after more than a year missing Noah sees Ria in a grocery store. Noah has been trying to find her and here she in right in front of him but with no interest in connecting. From there Noah and Ria face difficult and dangerous situations, learning everything is not what is seems. Although 6 years later everything changed...It's been a year since they've seen each other and talked to each other but why? Why does Ria suddenly have to hide? Why does she need Agents keeping her safe? Is someone spying on her? Is someone trying to harm her? But Noah is an agent so why can't he keep her safe? Does he even know what's going on? Suddenly Noah finds Ria in a grocery store.. but wait.. what is she holding on to so tight to her chest and trying to hide? After one year of never seeing each other Noah is confused of why she's showing no reaction in reuniting. Authors, if you are a member of the Goodreads Author Program, you can edit information about your own books. Find out how in this guide.First of all, this book was a completely different genre that what I normally read. I usually avoid suspense and anything scary at all costs, but when I saw Kaye was writing this book, I knew I had to give it a chance since I absolutely adored Glad You Exist. And let me just say, I am so glad I did! This book is a masterpiece. All that to say, even if you don't normally read suspense, please give this book a chance because Kaye did a beautiful job of crafting this story. The book starts off nicely, you have Ria who meets Noah, it's insta-love. Then the book takes you to the present where they're married with a baby boy that Noah has no clue exists, and she's under the impression that he "trapped" her by putting her under 24h protection (basically she can't leave the house) so she tries to run away when she sees him. So many questions and why's right? is it killing you to know the answers? Well you'll have to read it, to find out. First of all, I liked the show of vulnerability here from both characters. While reading, I could tell that their love for one another goes deep, and maybe just the way that it was written in simple yet hitting descriptions. When the drama started unfolding, it kept me confused and curious with the characters so I started guessing with them as well, which was fun to do. Also, yes Filipino representation!! When Filipino food was mentioned, I got giddy! When *that* character spoke in Tagalog, I got giddy! So nice to see.
