Summary:

When in the corporate world, being career driven is a quality commendable by many. Yet when you're a woman- that only wants to focus on that aspect of her life- the validity of your gender always comes into question.

Eliza Kelly is one of those hardworking people who fought hard to get to where she is as a CIO of Bluestar Technologies. She never felt like less of a person because she hardly let her thoughts linger around marriage or children. She was a respected individual, but there was something about her not wanting to fulfill her "womanly duties" that mildly suppressed the micro-aggressions of her predominantly male environment. According to them, she was secretly strange, too uptight, or not a "normal" woman. However, when Eliza experiences an accidental pregnancy, from a short lived-tryst, she's is faced with decisions she never planned to make.

The difficult situation is not something Eliza can hide, and she can't deny the pressure surrounding what is expected of her the moment she was unwillingly reminded that she is a woman.

Okay.

So i feel like the only thing i should really say about this book is to be prepared to cry for like the first half of the book.

The beginning was truly just...heartbreaking. Like I felt great empathy for Eliza.

BUT

It gets good as hell after it's depressing period so don't let that stray you away. And I'm mostly just exaggerating cause i have a big heart and i get emotional and cry at everything 😭😩

And of course there are some bitch ass characters that just need to drop off the face off the earth but I'm not gonna say who cause it'll spoil the whole book.

Then there are some amazing characters like my bae 😍😍❤❤💕 who does everything he can to help and also grow with Eliza because she really needed it.

Ughh there's so much more i wanna mention but like they are spoilers so my lips are sealed

Oh btw it's a bwwm book and although my preference is black love I still like to read outside the box sometimes so yeah still expect me to recommend bwwm but not as much I guess.

And also MayenWrites, I loveeeeee your book so much ❤❤❤ Like I got so happy when Eliza womaned up and finally took care of what she should have.
