I honestly don’t know what to write in my review! I enjoyed the book. It was well written and the characters were fun. Charlotte (who REALLY annoyed me in the 1st book) was a damper for me. Shelley and Adrian were cute. I liked that we got to know Adrian by his son , Ben and his art. Shelley for some reason I felt like I was missing pieces to the puzzle. It talked about how she wanted someone to like her for her and not who they thought she was bc of her online cooking videos. It almost felt like these online videos were something we should have known about. It didn’t really elaborate about them. Until you were much farther into the books I don’t know. I liked Shelley as well and how she interacted with Adrian and Ben, I just don’t feel like I knew her as well.
The romance was good, no whishy-washy, I don’t deserve love which is always a plus for me. Once Adrian decided he wanted to peruse Shelley that was it. He went all in.
“The woman that invades my every thought, that keeps me up at night, that has me thinking I might have a future that isn’t just about Ben and me. That woman is you. Somehow, you have wormed your way inside here.” I took her hand and raised it to my chest, resting her flat palm on my racing heart. I rested my hand on hers, holding it in place on my chest. “For so long this has been locked. Closed off. Not open to anyone. And somehow, you found a way inside.”

I liked this book’s characters (our heroine and her baking YouTube channel, Ben a very cute ten-year-old, Mamie the grandmother of them all) quite a lot. But there was something that didn’t work that well for me: maybe it was the too much kissing (there weren’t explicit scenes but it was a bit too much for me) or the previous relationship between the main characters that didn’t let me enjoy this as much as expected.
I’m happy to wait for the next one and see if it works better for me.
I received a review copy of this book. My opinions are my own.
