Once again, Abby Jimenez has written a book that I couldn’t put down. I’m in love with the characters of this book, especially Stuntman Mike, and their lives that are not Hallmark-perfect. As someone who had terrible periods and had a hysterectomy when I was 30, I can feel Kristen’s pain and how hard it is to go through such a thing. But having a partner who loves you unconditionally and can help you get through those insecurities is imperative.

Obsessed with Abby Jimenez and everything she writes. I laughed, I cried. I loved the characters. It all felt real and beautiful. I probably would have given it 5 full stars if I didn’t read Yours Truly right before this and that was an easy 5 stars. This was still so great, but I liked Yours Truly even better so I felt like they needed different ratings, haha. My rating system is random and not well structured. 🤷🏼‍♀️
