This was so sweet, and while sad at times it was relatively low angst — we have the open and honest communication between our MMCs to thank for that. A tiny spoiler, but one of the biggest highlights of the book wasNo third-act breakup!
I only caught a few grammar errors and one continuity error (the age difference between Jordan and the sibling closest to him in age was originally eleven years, but later changed to eight), but nothing major, and overall easy to overlook.

I want to give it 4 stars because I really liked it but I wouldn't read it again so I'll give it three well deserved stars.
Whenever I think of this book I just get mad at Brett’s family and his friends. His family were real pieces of crap, especially how they tried to railroad him at the end. His friends weren’t in the picture at all. Not believable that they wouldn’t try to bail him out at all. They were only there to shit on him behind his back about what his relationship was with Jordan.
Jordan and Brett’s relationship didn’t make sense to me. It felt like the attraction between them was made up to fit the story rather than what was presented to us in the beginning.
Finally, the relationship dynamic was quite unhealthy with the co-dependency. The story showed Brett literally couldn’t survive without Jordan’s presence and his help. It really should have been able to show Brett have a healthy dynamic with the kids on his own before considering the two as a couple.
