Such a wonderful book. I loved Abbie and Will's story, and little Seb is so adorable.
Will and Abbie have been friends since high school, but they never crossed this line. Everything changes when Abbie's apartment and yoga studio flood, and the only place she can stay is at Will's.
On the night that Abbie moves, he is taken by surprise when one of the girls he had a hookup with, brings him the child and all the necessary documents for him to have custody. Abbie knows that Will would never ask for help, so because "her apartment isn't ready yet" she stays and helps Will while he works.
During all the time that Abbie stays with Will, the two of them cross the line of friendship, and finally let out to some deep feelings, which is very sweet and hot.
I really liked the development of the characters. Will was a playboy until his son came into his life and wants to offer him the love of a father that he didn't receive when he was a child, and Abbie that she could declare that relationships and children are a big no, ends up falling in love with little Seb and his father.
Thank you Samantha Leigh for the opportunity to read this amazing book in exchange for an honest review.

โThe universe makes plans whether we like it or not, and our story was etched in the sky long before we knew our own truths.โ
Finally, we got Will and Abbeyโs story! These four books in the series follows a group of friends in this small town and finding their person. To understand Abbey and Willโs story, I would start from the first book as you feel the tension and chemistry come through. I love how we got the reformed playboy look from Will but it still had elements of fun with Abbey and the bingo challenge it just made you smile. I honestly love this friend group so much and each of their stories. I do recommend this whole series if you want to give it a go!

I absolutely love valentines bay. Will and Abbie have such good sexual tension and I love how their story develops. There is so much going on and at points it did feel like a couple storylines were forgotten but overall it was really good.
I wish we had more of a wrap about Sebโs mom and who had posted the daddy will stuff
