DID NOT FINISH: 64%

Is Paisley Hope a 17 year old boy? 

Also:
- an offensive number of typos and grammatical errors 
- are we seriously calling our boss a slave driver here in 2025?

I jumped right into the flames on this one!  Such a cute second chance romance with so much heart.  Though the timeline for our lovers reunion happened quickly, it never felt rushed.  The discussion of coping with grief and mental health were heartfelt and refreshing.  I really enjoyed getting to know the hotshots and look forward to checking out the other stories in the series.

Loved this! I’m a sucker for the Second Chance trope so this might be way I rated this higher than the first book.

I found this book to be really enjoyable and I definitely plan on reading more of Hope’s backlog!
