This book has a pregnancy trope in it. While I’m not a fan of said trope, Elsie writes her characters so well, especially her male main characters that it’s something I could easily overlook. Who wouldn’t than a Theo in their life tbh?

3.5

I really liked the change-up in the dynamic of bad-boy afraid of love and sunshine girly makes him want a relationship because this mMC loves a lot and is not afraid to love hard while the fMC has suffered in the past because of a variety of things making her distancing  herself emotionally and act a little self-distructive.

For a trope I usually really dislike this was executed quite well. Trying not to spoiler anything...the reaction of the mMC to the child seemed genuine and was better than what usually happens in these romances.

But there are a lot of tiny things I would critize...but only quite small things like some none inclusive language that unfortunately add up which is why this book was not able to reach 5 stars.

OH MY GOSH!! 

I didn’t think any more could too Heartless because I absolutely loved Willa and Cade but Reckless came in and literally wreaked my heart!!   

I mean Theo!!! I absolutely love him! I mean talk about a stand up guy!! I think I could read a whole series of just him!! 😍😍

I think the Willa still stands as my favorite FMC, but I definitely like Winter a lot more than I thought I would. 

I love that this book was grump sunshine, but with the MMC as the sunshine. It also has a surprise pregnancy, which usually isn’t my favorite, but this was written perfectly. 

I also loved seeing Winter and Summer’s relationship grow too. I’m glad they are finally able to move forward from the past and have the relationship with each other that the my truly deserve. 

As for Dr. Rob Heart and Dr. Mariana Hamilton can literally go f themselves.  🤬🤬🤬 They are both a toxic POS!! Excuse the language, but oh my were they awful. 

Finally, Mr. Harvey Eaton. I absolutely love you!! Can you please get your own book!! I  would so love to read that, even with the geriatric version of the procreation prowl.
