Some Reviews
Pamela : "I didn’t mean to read this book in one sitting - all 186 pages - but it is so captivating, honest, and relatable that I couldn’t stop. I felt this would be 5 stars after the first page. It deserves all the stars."

It's a duo with Lover’s Rock by Aaron Paul Schaut: Two interconnected stories: Tina’s voice and Gus’s perspective, making for a resonant double journey in love and memory.
Some Reviews
Bam Barrow: "It is a deeply personal story that embraces you with a loving hug of existential ennui. Aria's poetic flow and her way with words will leave you both sombre and hopeful all at once and hopefully may trigger some comforting self reflection of your own."
Lauren Sapala: "As part of the story takes place in Iran in the 1990s, and it was also really interesting to see the contrast between Iranian culture at that time and American culture."
Cami l: "This book satisfied my craving for a dark romance, flawed-characters, no-happy-ending tale."
