I liked that this was a BWWM and has dual POV but that's about it for me. The male love interest in this was better in the other book he appeared in
this series is cute i’m gonna continue it now that i read the second book and i’m like ok the author got good writing. i didn’t read the second book right away bc i wasn’t feeling the summary but reading it now it’s so cute idk what about the single parent trope that gets me good but it just eats every time for me. what i’m not the biggest fan is that the main guy in this book and the last one are literally the same guy at the beginning like why all the male leads have to be this cold asshole to the main girl but they end up falling in love w them but end up messing up towards the end like spice it up don’t get me wrong i’m still gonna read that shit but i need some variety if it’s in the same series. same w the main girl too bc they’re the same but they’re best friends so i get why they’re similar bc you’re friends w people like yourself but it kinda felt like reading the same couple but in a different scenario but i’m not complaining yk don’t fix what’s not broken. idk i’m doing such a bad review rn bc i lowkey forgot everything all i remember once i finished this book was that i liked it i cant offer any nuance rn lol. i did enjoy the little past the main couple have w each other and that they knew each other from high school i wasn’t expecting that and not the main girl being a bully to him but it was all bc of a miscommunication but damn that’s a crazy plot line tbh. bro the main girl’s mom annoyed me sm like i do understand her but she was such a hypocrite and hater to my girl and she does have cute moments where i’m like ok i fuck w her but still she’s such an accurate representation of immigrant mom’s it’s crazy. i did eat up the little shit the main guy did to win over the main girl’s mom like that’s cute i will say this guy is way more competent of his feelings and emotions than the last main guy and that’s most likely bc he’s a therapist lol. yeah this is a shitty review i cant think rn so imma end it here but cute book i’m gonna continue the series bc i love a good hate to love single parent book especially w a poc leading character this gets a 7.5/10 it’s good but based on how i’m writing this review it’s not outstanding and memorable it’s gonna blur together w most of the books i read but still would recommend.
it’s the way i got so mad towards the end of the book i just stopped reading and i was about to dnf but i pushed through bc i’m a survivor and i got over it but like ugh i hate when men lie. i don’t think i’m gonna continue this series anymore bc i got some anger issues i need to rein in before continuing lol but it was alright it felt like the same quality and rating as the last books like the books are consistent in that. something about this book was a little off tho and i think it’s bc the whole series revolves around the single parent trope and i felt there wasn’t as many interaction between the kid and the parent and future partner as i would like to fully embody the trope yk especially bc the scenes w the mom and the daughter was kinda rocky but i think im just being too judgy bc all kids argue w their parents but that doesn’t mean they hate them but idk i felt like there wasn’t many good moments between the mom and the kid but again that’s me. i wish there was more interactions between the kid and the main guy tho bc she liked him right away and that’s that like there was no kinda development to get them to this level it was instant which makes sense she’s a kid but idk i wanted more from them. now lemme talk about the main guy why is he lowkey insane and idk whether it’s a good way or not bc this man said he has a gallon of oil or gas whatever it was to smell bc it reminds me of the main girl like i don’t think that’s healthy but ok loyal. it’s just so awks that the main guy is the uncle of the main girl’s daughter like the family tree gonna look a little messy but hey i don’t judge you girly do what you want but that was the reason the main girl and main guy were like we can’t be together and also bc the main girl hates the main guy’s family for getting lawyers to try to pay her off to aborting her baby which is fucked but the main guy has changed yk he’s sniffing oil for her. but like i found that reason for not wanting to be together bc of the whole family shit kinda dumb if you like him go after him fr and that didn’t hold them back that well bc they end up getting together anyways but they were together for literally the shortest amount of time before the third act breakup where the truth is revealed of the main guy being behind the lawyers and that he lied but damn that was so short and he realizes he loves her after she leaves damn y’all fall in love fast it’s crazy but also it’s fiction i’ll let them breathe. the main girl is literally so strong bc if i had to be the face of this company and had to take criticism and backlash i think i would end it there but like she’s such a headstrong character girly was a single mom working in a male dominated field and deals w sexism everyday but that doesn’t stop her like she’s just so funzies. i wish we got more background of her family tho bc all we know is both her parents are dead and she was inspired by her dad to become a mechanic and this niche ass plot point used to threaten her of how her dad fixed her moms car that ended up killing her mom which makes sense for why she felt so guilty about this whole car mishap drama mid way through the book but like i wanted more come on talk about your childhood your lore fr but beggars can’t be choosers again. like we know more of the main guy’s background bc that’s a big part of the plot w his family company and how he’s actually an illegitimate son so i wish there was the same energy for the main girl’s even tho it isn’t as prevalent to the current plot but it gives a better understanding to my girl. i do like the main couple together i will say that like their chemistry is good i love a man obsessed w the main girl and she makes him work for it as all relationships should be fr and he was an asshole at first like all of these books but he grows on her and he grew on me too like she just needs someone to support her and that’s what he is for her fr. i’m giving this a 7.5/10 just another average book but hey it’s good.
Can we start a petition to stop calling books slow burn when they’re practically in love/obsessed with each other from the first page but they deny those feelings for no reason at all?
