Just WOW! I picked this book up hoping to get out of my reading slump and it was such an emotional rollercoaster.
This book follows a young woman called Vanessa who has the gene of ALS and has been passed down through the women of her family. She basically was living life to the fullest, travelling the world and filling up her travel vlog on YouTube…until a baby literally was left with her and halted all the plans. What’s even more annoying for Vanessa is she has a grumpy, sexy, ‘Jesus abs’ neighbour who wanted her to shut the baby up at 4am…it’s not like that’s what she had been trying to do 😅 before he started knocking on her door.
When reading this book (and unable to put it down), it had humour , moments that was so cute!, times I just wanted to bang the main characters heads together, heartbreak that left me calling them both idiots and of course an emotional and sweet ending.
I loved the emotional storyline that was beautifully represented. The characters were so diverse and had a mixture of real life problems, relationships & families
This book is a Grumpy/Sunshine & Friends to Lovers romance. It shows representation of the struggles with ALS, Drug Addict, Grief, Mental Health Issues & LGBTQ+ x

- contemporary fictional romcom & final installment
- first-person dual POV of love interests
- Friends-to-lovers, nextdoor-neighbor, opposites-attract, & mega strong messaging of be-grateful-for-your-life story set in Minnesota
- FMC travel YouTube blogger/influencer Vanessa
- MMC lawyer Adrian (went on a date with Sloan in the last book) // Vanessa is fostering her younger sister’s baby, since her younger sister Annabel is struggling with addiction
- Adrian knocks on her door to ask her to quiet the baby down but they end up becoming friends
- Adrian is dumped by his girlfriend of eight months, after telling him she was married
- Cameos from previous series characters, much to my chagrin because FOUR KIDS?! REALLY, FOUR KIDS?! WITH THAT MEDICAL HISTORY?! LITERALLY FORK OFF
- Really dislike the making fun of “micro penises” & “nothing is that deep” mentality in here 😭
- cw: terminal illness, chronic illness (ALS), addiction, drug abuse, abandonment, mental illness, panic attacks/disorders, hoarding
- steam 1/5
