I received a copy of this book from NatGalley in exchange for an honest review.
I have lost my way. Freya hasn’t been able to sing in weeks. She has so much riding on recording her first album. It’s been her dream for so long, but now that it counts, she can’t sing at all.
I have lost my way. Nathaniel has been taking care of his father for so long he doesn’t even know who he is without him in his life. He feels invisible.
I have lost my way. Harun has found the love his life, James, but there is no way he can tell his very religious family that he’s gay. They actually expect that he will be flying to Pakistan to meet a wife in a few days time. How did he get to this point?
The three have a freak chance meeting, and they decide that they are meant to be together in each other’s lives. They don’t realize how much they can actually help and heal one another.
I really liked this book. Forman has a way of drawing her readers in and making them care about the characters they get to know. I loved how the story went between all the various characters, and you learn more and more about each character as you read. I highly recommend this for all library collections.
