This was a very cute book. I enjoyed Noah and thought he was a complex character who grew by the end of the book. I also really liked Gemma and her strength in fighting through her circumstances. The two of them together were perfect. I wanted them to communicate more and maybe connect on a deeper level speaking-wise, so it wasn’t all physical; so, when we eventually go to the inevitable “we are so much more,” it would’ve been a little more believable for them to have this deep, meaningful connection.
I liked how her brother didn’t freak out how they usually do in this trope and how he knew Noah was in love.
I enjoyed the friends and family aspect + Winnie was an A+ dog and addition to the story. I love a single parent trope, and when the main love interest steps up, this checks all the boxes.

if noah london has 100 fans i’m one of them, if he has 1 fan it’s me, if he has no fans i’m dead.

i loved alive at night so much it has been one of my favorite reads this year so i knew i had to try and get an arc for awake at dawn. i literally screamed when i got it. i’m so happy i got it because i loved this one just as much as alive at night.

gemma and noah are one of my favorite couples, i feel like they match each other’s energy so good. i love their dynamic and the fact that he was so ready to step up to be baby’s dad so quick. i love how protective he was over her.

another thing i love about this series is the family dynamics and how these families do nothing but love and protect each other. reading about gemma with noah’s brothers was one of my favorite parts in this book.

i love this book, and i love alive at night. please read them both if you want fun and spicy books.

also ofc we all knew noah was going to be a ********** dad

Noah London has stolen my heart. He is another book boyfriend standard and Gemma is one lucky lady! These two are so freaking cute together it hurts. ❤️

I am so invested in Noah and Gemma’s relationship and the journey these two went on. Pregnancy trope is not my favorite, but I liked how it was handled. I loved seeing their growth together and them working through their fears of what is happening. While things may not have been planned the way Noah would have liked, the way he stepped up for Gemma and took care of her was perfection. He stepped when the pos sperm donor (I am not calling him the father because he isn’t!) cast Gemma aside. His possessiveness of Gemma was hot. And the spice is SPICY 🥵

Gemma is a badass queen for going through what she is. While she is terrified of her situation, the way she trusted Noah was the best. I loved that she just dove right on in with him. While I wish she would have communicated better with her own family about what was going on, it didn’t take away from the story for me. 

I loved every second of this book and because I’m greedy, I want more! I want more of them and more of Julian and Juniper! I hope there is a book 3…maybe about another one of Julian’s sisters or one of Noah’s brothers? 👀 Or one of Julian’s sisters and Noah’s brothers?!!

Started off really strong, you could see a deep connection between the MFC and MMC however as soon as they had sex that’s what the book became about which ruined it a bit for me. I enjoy spicy scenes as much as the next person however I felt so detached from the characters as it stirred away from the plot as they turned into horny teenagers who couldn’t control themselves.
