Jimin is never lucky. He's worked hard for everything he's earned, even harder than most some might say.
Maybe Fate has just been biding her time though, because when Jimin does finally win, he wins big - an all expenses paid luxury safari trip for 2. It's his dream made real, bucket list achievement unlocked! Two weeks away to clear his head and then come back to the fresh start he desperately needs.
But when the trip is over, and he's back in the wintry grey of Korea again, he finds the song of the Mara and the quiet whispers of the soft spoken safari guide who holds all of the stars of the African night sky in his eyes continue to echo in his heart.
Seoul and Mombassa are a world apart in more ways than one, and his friends worry he's fallen too hard for what was at best a holiday fling, or at worst - a clever catfish.
Can they actually make it work or was it all just too good to be true?

What l found most valuable was the contract with the former toxic relationship – it really drove home the damage it could do to self-worth and self-respect. The deep self-doubts and insecurities it could promote and make them look normal. Relationships can really make us or break us.
Thankfully, nothing beats the deep abiding connection this pair shares.
This one has it all, an absolute CJ can’t-go-without read.
