I would like a little warning or it to even be mentioned that pregnancy is a bigger topic in a book so I can avoid it because I am just not interested in it being a main topic in a romance book.
Because in this book it is not just an accidental pregnancy one did not want to spoiler.

Fake Dating
Lighthearted Spice
Bartender Romance
The Player x The One Who Wants a Family

The audiobook was narrated so well, I can not get over how well they did.  The book itself was okay.  I liked it a lot more than I would have thought.  The small town vibe was nice, the characters had decent chemistry, and the banter was cute between them; plus I love the fake dating trope so that was nice. 

However, I really hate pregnancy tropes so maybe it’s just that but it was so annoying how Grace needed to have kids.  Brushing over the fact she had a job she liked and did well at.  It was like having a kid was her only life goal.  It just felt too much like having a family was a personality trait for her.  It felt too forced.  Respectfully, it just seems weird to only want kids because you like the idea of them.
