The story has a good hook as Lily’s and Ethan’s POVs add emotional depth to their relationship. However, on page 134, the narrative perspective shifts to an omniscient POV without any apparent justification, even though continuing with Lily and Ethan’s viewpoints could have worked well until the end of the novel. From page 134 onward, the narrative feels rushed and in need of further editing. The plot is circular and focuses only on Lily’s artwork and Ethan’s monitoring of her progress. I believe that further editing would help this novel reach four or even five stars.
