I see Talia Hibbert, I pick it up. I unfortunately didn't like this as much as her other books, but that's okay! I still had a great time reading this. And you can really tell her writing has evolved!

I felt this was TOO insta lovey. I mean...

getting engaged only after a few months is wild.

I also didn't feel that they had much chemistry at all. Mainly because well they don't really know eachother. The pacing was off and I felt like our characters didn't get a whole lot of mundane scenes together. Which I think definitely would have made their chemistry more convincing! 

I do like the talks about domestic/child abuse though. And im glad everyone got a happy ending. Yay therapy!

Not gonna lie I did cry when

it panned to two years later and they had their daughter. Who they named Freya after his mother ♡. Such a precious moment.  Especially with all of Ruben's feelings surrounding children due to his childhood. It definitelyshowed his growth.

 
 
Overall I did like this and I would recommend it!

The first half was a hilarious sexy romance (I cannot get enough of Talia Hibbers lover interests simping over their women), while the second half developed the romantic relationship while also dealing with several serious topics. I really enjoyed the backstory of Ruben, Cherry was amazing (I can only admire the way she was able to stand up for herself throughout the whole book) and the whole book was just what I needed this week. 

Talia Hibbert is quickly becoming my favorite romance author.
