I'm always fascinated by stories of long term relationships or infidelity. It's not everyone's cup of tea, but I think this story is not asking you to like the characters or approve of their actions. It's aiming to be a glimpse at a human situation that many people find themselves in and paint a picture about these characters mindsets. It's one possible answer to “why do people cheat?” I am very curious to see how this will play out. Fact is being with someone for 10 years, living together for 5, it's not so easy to just break up even if you're not happy. Rather than gaslighting as another reviewer put it, I think the new guy is making the main character face some hard truths. And ultimately her best course of action would be good communication with her boyfriend but that wouldn't make for as interesting a plot. Perhaps this will be a cautionary tale...

I'm giving this comic the benefit of the doubt, since there's only 2 chapters so far and rating 5 stars. It might really be 4 or 4.5 but I'll say one thing for certain is I am pretty much pulled in and need to know how this ends up for better or for worse. Basically, despite the cute smiles on the cover, they run away because one guy is basically a fugitive. They distract themselves from reality by getting “physical” so there is some nice smut. My morbid curiosity means I will read the rest even if it's not any sort of happy ending.

I have read the 3 chapters released so far and I have to say this is realism at its finest. I have reread several times already and I just keep feeling it deeper. It's entirely believable scenario that can happen when you're in college. And the characters emotions and inner thoughts feel very authentic. The intimate moments have perfect pacing and again feel pretty realistic. Points for consensual and using protection. I think they're really sweet together but I can tell there will be a bit more heartache before we reach the end of this story. I can't wait for more chapters.

The plot is kind of messy, and the level of misunderstanding between the couple is getting annoying, but it's very sexy and I like the look of male lead character. The smutty scenes are pretty good I think.
