Until You by Zoe Dod is a deeply emotional and gripping romance that doesn’t shy away from the darker realities its heroine faces. The story centers on Lady Isabella King, who escapes her painful past in hopes of building a new life in Thailand. Early in the novel, readers are confronted with a gut-wrenching scandal and trauma that Isabella endures—an experience that is handled with sensitivity and realism, setting the tone for her journey of healing and self-discovery.
Zoe Dod crafts Isabella’s character with nuance, showing her strength in the face of adversity and her vulnerability as she works to reclaim her sense of self. The trauma Isabella suffers is not glossed over; instead, it becomes a pivotal part of her growth and the foundation for the emotional stakes of the story. As Isabella navigates trust, love, and forgiveness, the romance that develops is both tender and hard-won, making every moment of connection feel earned.
Until You stands out for its willingness to tackle difficult themes while ultimately delivering hope and redemption. Fans of emotional, character-driven romance will find Isabella’s journey both heartbreaking and inspiring, and Zoe Dod’s writing ensures the story resonates long after the last page.

I don't understand how this book has such a high rating
Honestly, I usually don't leave a review if I don't like a book, but this time, it is different. I don't understand how this book has such a high rating. I’ve read hundreds of books, if not more, unfortunately, this one was the worst reading. The plot was okay, not more, and it was too hard to read a book without the main characters’ POV. I don’t understand why chapters are named with the main characters when all are written in the third person. I couldn’t even read it properly, at some point I started to read it briefly, just to follow the flow. I’ve read a few Zoe’s books and they were good enough reading, but this one for sure is a disappointing one.

Holy crap, what an emotional rollercoaster!
But such an amazing one, I loved every minute of this book.
At the beginning, having to see Christian so hurt about Lily. I love he found love again.
How Christian and Isabelle met after so many years! They were instant, I could feel their love!
Such a beautiful story, poor Christian having to give up his parental rights so quick after Lily’ death.
I felt bad for Isabelle, not only did she find her fiancé cheating on her with her best friend, she was put in a rehabilitation, thinking her stepmother would do that.
Skylar is so fucking cute!!!
I cried so hard when Isabelle left, especially the night before when they said they loved each other!!!
4.75⭐️

Ok read
Not understanding how you can love someone yet hurt them for no reason. Scarlett was so quick to hurt Sebastian and Isabella was the same with Christian. I don't understand

A lovely read
Loved the story line, romance and the bad guys getting justice served. Christian would be lovely to meet in real life and Isabelle is well suited to him...
