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!

This was another hit by Talia Hibbert for me. It was for sure an instant love situation which sometimes I don't enjoy as much because it tends to move fast, but in this case it was very fun. I especially enjoy a good fake dating story. The way it all came together in end really made it feel like it'll be a relationship that could truly work.

This book was a little on the darker side. It's been a bit since I read the book, I'm catching up on reviews, so I may have missed some content warnings.
