Is this rom com or chick lit? Maybe a little of both but I don't care because I loved this story. Kate is a totally believable character and her struggle and mourning is legit. her husband of 28 years, Luke, dies suddenly and she cannot cope. She loses her job and pushes her friends away due to her all consuming grief? Is this sounding familiar? Maybe a little but the rest of the story is unexpected because somehow a Russian plot fits in... WHAT?!

I thought this was going to continue on as a rom-com/love story but somehow it became an espionage/spy novel. It was confusing but still likeable. Don't know what to categorize this as but still a worthy read. Not a favorite but still good.

Thanks to Netgalley, Robert Webb and Back Bay Books, a division of Little, Brown and Company publishing for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
