First they learned, now they love! 🥰🥰

I absolutely adored this story! It was so different yet Grey left her signature mark on every page! Because I’m always greedy with my reads, an epilogue with a wedding and a baby would’ve sealed the deal even more! I loved Nami and York and I’m glad they got it together!

Read the series!

I wish this was longer but not really...?
I loved them more here, because I was emotionally invested from the first book.

How she didn't want her healing to depend on him? Beautiful.
How he didn't want her to make him feel like he's expandable because she's not the only one hurting? Heart throbs.

In this follow up to As We Learn Tsunami is now dealing with her feelings after her night with York and there are some bumps in the road to what appeared to be the start to a relationship between the two. While I understood that Tsunami had a difficult time expressing herself to York, I think if she had done it sooner she would not have had him in his feelings. When she finally did go to talk to him I found his reaction to her a little funny but she needed to get a little taste of her own medicine...lol. Overall I enjoyed this series and I was happy that they were there for each other in what they needed from the other without necessarily having a title. I was also happy that there was mention of them spending time together out of the bedroom because I would have thought it was only lust and not love.

Loving through Grief

Grey, girl you know how to write a damn short story! 

This was so good. 4.5 stars! 

Nami and York's love story continues. Nami is hesitant to lean into the happiness she feels with York because she is supposed to be grieving. She feels like experiencing anything other than pain isn't fair to the friend she lost. 

It's wild to think really, society has us feeling that grief has a certain look and you couldn't have really loved the person you lost, if you aren't drowning in tears and sadness. York, who proved to be wise and sexy, tried to explain to her that it was okay to move on while grieving. 

The pain felt in their back and forth was palpable. It was clear that they both wanted to be together and York wasn't afraid to put his heart on the line first. It took a minute for Nami to catch up, but when she did they were beautiful together.

Tsunami finally got it together and let York in. I would have liked to see more of their romance. I wish we could have seen them going about everyday activities, getting married, and starting a family.

I love a man who refuse to allow you to play with his heart. York was dealing with his own trauma and handing it in a way that benefit him. Even through his grief he refuses to be a toy to Nami. He was honest and up front about what he wanted and she curbed him. It gave me great pleasure when she came back to apologize he didn’t just give it lol. I feel a little graveling was necessary lol . This was a short but still worth all the hype. Grey Huffington cannot write a bad book.

Awesome!!

I don’t want it to end… Just when I fell in love with York and Nami it was over. I enjoyed that they both were able to heal as a duo to experience such a profound love they knew was possible from the very first phone call. I loved it! I wish I could get more of them especially York with his BDE.

Beautiful

This was a beautiful story and definitely unlike any other Ive read. You never see books dealing with impairments and them living happily ever after and this is one of the main reasons I love Greys writing style.

Amazing!!

I love York. He is not playing with Nami at all. He’s a man that knows exactly why he wants and he stood on that.

Reality check....

I went straight to reading this book from "As We Learn" I had to see how Tsunami and York end. I was glad when Tsunami came to her senses and realize York was the man for her. I loved it when York said he would make her his wife before a mother. Those two were made for each other.

Another great read and wonderful finale. When he said that he accepts her emotionally impaired because she accepted him visually impaired, it just touches my soul. That line alone was just beautiful and fitting.

"I understand the pain you’re in. I’m in the same pain, but I’m not making it my life. Because it hurt so bad, why not surrender to someone that makes you feel so good? That’s my remedy – you.”

I loved these so much. They're very quick reads and like with any Grey novella, you get such a full story in a short amount of time. She is a novella queen in my book. She also handles characters with disabilities so well The character development in this one was A plus. 

• Nami and York really stole my heart. 
• Both are dealing with the loss of very special people in their lives. But what do you do when your heart is ready but your mind isn't? It's a struggle at every turn. 
• York's words and affirmations shifted every thought in Nami's mind. The sexiest parts were the words…for me.
• This one feels like love. It IS love. I suggest you read it if you want some push and pull with swoon-worthy moments as well 🤎

” if you can have me - visually impaired - i have no problem accepting you - emotionally impaired.” 🥺

nami and york are definitely one of my favorite couples already! give me a blind billionaire just like york & i’d be set for life with no complaints 🔥🔥🔥.

nami pushed york away while dealing with the passing of her bestfriend, not wanting to forget her pain and also not wanting to depend on another human for her happiness and i totally understand her point.

meanwhile, all york was trying to do was assist her in healing and try to give her the love she deserved in a time of need, and i understand his point too!

overall i like the fact that i could see the point of view of both nami and york as both of their feelings were valid and realistic.

in the end, i just wanted more of them honestly. this wasn’t enough at all 🥹‼️.

Wow, just wow!

Queen Grey came through again with part 2 of the "Emotionally Impaired Series".
York & Nami were still dealing worth their grief but in different ways. For York, he embarrassed the grief wanted to take the necessary steps to keep himself from drowning in his grief. On the other hand Nami is doing the total opposite, she's allowing her grief to swallow her whole and leave her bitter and unwilling to accept help from others and the love she longs to receive from York.
Theirs nothing like putting yourself out there and being rejected by the person you know in your heart and soul it's meant for you. Therapy is the first step to healing, well that and prayer to me go hand in hand and it's so needed.
Such a great book, short and sweet.

This story captures grief in its rawest form the kind that lingers, reshapes you and makes loving again feel almost disloyal. Nami’s pain is palpable; losing her best friend hollowed her out and the survivor’s guilt clings to her every thought. Wanting York while still aching for what she lost feels like a betrayal she doesn’t know how to forgive herself for.

What made this hit even harder is that York is grieving too. They lost someone on the same day, yet their pain shows up differently hers is inward, guarded, suffocating; his reaches outward, searching for connection. That contrast is heartbreaking and beautifully written. Grey Huffington didn’t rush healing or soften the edges of loss. She let the grief live on the page and it hurts, in the most honest way.

Real stories with real emotions

The emotions emitted out of this book are real. Grief is crippling, grief is hard, grief is painful, but most importantly grief is real. One of the realist points in this story is that the look of grief has been falsified. It has no look and what it feels like can only be defined by the carrier of its complexity. Nami and York teach us that it doesn’t have to be perfected before it can be reflected, love that is. I’m not disappointed in the lease bit as Grey carefully illustrates that the heart too can seek out what it needs for healing. Sis has set the bar yet again.

And still I want more!

I could use a longer dose of York and Nami. I think these characters and their story should be savored. I enjoyed the re-visit. Their emotions were real and honest. I hope we get a chance to see more of them. I would like to see their interactions with family and how to cope with every day life. This second installment was a great follow up to this series. And I also want to know what's up with Haiti. She seems like she has some emotional impairment going on too. Even with this being a short story, Grey makes her characters and storyline so relatable and honest, you can't help but want more.

York is the man in many ways. Tsunami was too broken to truly appreciate that

Two broken people, though one more broken than the other, having the ability to help one another become whole individually and as a unit. I get where Tsunami was coming from but that's a horrible way to grieve. To deprive your heart of something and someone who can help in your healing? That ending had me all in my feelings though. I teared up at the thoughtful gift and York's simple yet meaningful reaction to it. This was a great series!!

Do you think you could date/fall in love with a man that's blind? Would it be too much for you to handle? Would you be ashamed? If I thought I couldn't, York seems to make it easy to fall for him. I love that eventhough he has a handicap, he comes off as persuasive, smooth...but not pressed.
Nami, I was about to choke her but she finally learned how to deal with her grief and got her shit together. This was two cute little stories. I really was entertained how they met. It was something new and it was refreshing.

This is a continuation of Nami and York's story from the first book As We Lay. Here, we see a progression of how these two characters make their relationship a more permanent one while coping with the grief of losing their loved ones.
My favorite thing about this book is the length; it is short and quite easy to read. You'll just breeze through it.
This book has one of the simplest plots I have ever come across in my history of reading books.
Do I like the book? Yes, I do.
