― Mariana Zapata, All Rhodes Lead Here
This slow burn captivated me with each chapter, as I craved to see our characters interact. The tropes in the story kept me interested every step of the way: found family/home, small town, single-dad (kinda?, the kid is stickin' cute though), and of course the grumpy/sunshine trope.
The only complaint was the nicknaming the ML had for the FL (it was just weird to me), and when there was a medical emergency the FL called her non medically trained friend. Girl why?
But that's just me being nitpicky. Should totally check this one out!

I normally don't care for the grumpy/sunshine romance trope, but I really enjoyed this book. I was hesitant to read this book because the premise felt a bit out there (it still is, but the characters are so sweet), but I loved Zapata's other book, The Wall of Winnipeg and Me. Rhodes was so charming, supportive, and a great partner for Aurora. I liked reading about the beautiful scenery that Aurora would see while going on hikes. I knew this was going to be a slow burn romance because Zapata is known for writing slow burns, but there was not enough spice in this book. The one (and only) sex scene between Rhodes and Aurora was extremely disappointing especially since they had such strong chemistry throughout the entire book. Aurora and Rhodes don't even kiss until 83% of the way through the book.
