Did not finish book. Stopped at 22%.
DNF at 23% because the plot was ridiculous, the characters annoying (ugh I HATE Mack) and the writing style immature.

I love Marina Vivancos in general, but this ain't it. Emil had no personality whatsoever apart from "being kind" and "loving Isak" and I felt there was never any real conversation between them.

I have a feeling we're gonna get a sequel where this couple's eldest son and the child of the Honeythorn couple are all grown up and in an arranged marriage.
