A fun and sweet romance. We love a DEVOTED man (it’s the only way they should be). Chloe is such a kind character, I love that she sticks up for herself. Her relationship with Warren’s brother, Luke, is so sweet. Warren is a bit of a dreamboat, if not way too unrealistic for being so in love, but we do love to read it. This book really takes some license with CPS and the foster care system but it sure is a fun idea.  
A bit of cutesy / millennial humor and writing, but for the contemporary romance books of today it wasn’t too cheesy, I personally do not enjoy that type of writing but it was rather sparse so It wasn’t too distracting. (I know that is some people’s cup of tea, so all love <3 but I will usually DNF if it’s too bad).

I appreciated the premise, the found family, foster families, difficult past with parents etc. I don’t know a ton about child services, but the premise of two random people being paired together seemed a tad far fetched. And unfortunately the romance was lacking to me. I didn’t think there was quite enough build up or tension - yeah it’s forced proximity, but I felt the romance came out of nowhere. I actually think this book could’ve been longer (since I listened to this in basically one sitting). All of a sudden they were saying I love you without even having gone on a date or slept together?
