I enjoyed the relationships within this book and the storyline was well written and it included some interesting twists. I felt at times that there was overstepping in the relationship and by then end it was moving super fast.

This was a cute story, sad there towards the end and didn’t see that part coming, but I’m glad it all turned happily ever after. Not my fav, but still cute

Sad, cried, love the story. Quick easy read

I really enjoyed this book, but I also found myself extremely frustrated with Kristen. I understand why she didn’t want to tell Josh about her reproductive health issues, but the lack of communication was a huge, flashing red flag for me. It made it hard to root for her at times, even though I could see where she was coming from.

And then there’s Sloan and Brandon’s storyline. Wow. I don’t think I’ll ever recover from that. Abby Jimenez has a way of making you feel every ounce of emotion right along with her characters. I was holding back tears at work because of Sloan and just the general unfairness of life (yes, I know it’s fiction, but still!).

Even with the frustrations, this book pulled me in completely. Abby’s writing makes it so easy to get invested in these characters, and I’m already looking forward to getting upset all over again at the next book
