AND Noah Thomas - do you know how much I loved you from that coffee shop scene ? You are the existence of the perfect word .. the way you always loved and cared for your wife no matter how much hurted you were ..makes me wonder i would ever love another fictional character as much I felt for you !!!! Aku baca karena Noah nya YaAllah pasangan impian banget tapi kenapa harus ketemu Ria ya yang mana nyebelin banget. Karena kesalahpahaman di 8 halaman terakhir Ria nya baru bilang cinta lagi sama Noah. Padahal sebaik itu dan bukan salah Noah juga 🥲 I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO WORDS FOR THIS,, the only reason I gave it an extra 0.5 was bc Noah is a sweetheart.

So many questions and why's right? is it killing you to know the answers? Well you'll have to read it, to find out. We see Noah and Ria fall head-over-heels in love with each other, and now it’s 6 years later - Ria has been missing and Noah just found her again, the love of his life, except that she’s convinced he ruined her life and that she has already divorced him! I enjoyed this romantic suspense with a Filipino fmc, but wanted it to be a bit more than it was. But if you are looking for a closed door romance with some crime procedural vibes this will hit that spot!

Meet Ria, she works in a lovely coffee shop. And then there's Noah, an FBI agent. He happens to get coffee everyday for the past couple of months but of course he only wants his coffee from that specific place😉. The thing is, they don't really talk to each other but he's so in awe of her that he just keeps going just to admire her. Eventually one day Ria decides to talk to him... and "Hi there" is all it takes! Writing-wise, I haven't read much books in the present tense so it was a bit hard for me at the start to get engaged. But overall, the descriptions and dialogues were easy to read and follow. turns out her roommate,Penny, is her stepsis, but Penny's mom had cheated on their dad so technically Ria is an only child (again?) and she panics again :) First of all, this book was a completely different genre that what I normally read. I usually avoid suspense and anything scary at all costs, but when I saw Kaye was writing this book, I knew I had to give it a chance since I absolutely adored Glad You Exist. And let me just say, I am so glad I did! This book is a masterpiece. All that to say, even if you don't normally read suspense, please give this book a chance because Kaye did a beautiful job of crafting this story.

Also, yes Filipino representation!! When Filipino food was mentioned, I got giddy! When *that* character spoke in Tagalog, I got giddy! So nice to see. she decides to "sacrifice," herself and go willingly to her roommate, who btw is out to get her, and when she's at gunpoint then she realizes that her husband deserves better :) and naturally he comes and saves the day.I freaking LOVED Noah 😍 like so so much. he is protective and loyal, and he would go to any length to defend his family 🥺💞 Ria, on the other hand, i really did love her character a lot and sympathized with her but she did annoy me just a little, but she'd gone through a lot and her emotions were understandable. I felt bad as every time they shared a special moment, she would close herself off again as she was afraid to get hurt again (and I get that i do as I’ve often done similar stuff and felt the same) BUT I really felt so bad for Noah and Ria after all they’d been through and I felt they deserved their happily ever after, which they did get so yayyyyyy 🤍🎉 Ria and Noah met years ago when he came into her coffee shop every shift to see her. Their whirlwind romance meant soon after meeting and sleeping together, they moved to DC together so Noah could go through FBI training. They get married … and then a few years into their marriage, they are separated for a year and half, both believing the other left them. When they’re reunited - with their baby son - they discover their separation was for their own safety and that a criminal lord is after them both. Can they stay safe and repair their long broken relationship? Omg I can't breathe !!! How good ,excited and overwhelmed this book made me feel . Ria - I am so sorry you had to go through all those traumas but the strength you had i literally adore you for that In Case You Didn't Know holds a beautiful story about two people, whose lives have been completely turned around, now having to figure out how - and if - their relationship can be restored, all while being under threat in a dangerous situation
