100_pages_hr's review against another edition
4.5
The romance in this book was amazing, but the true beauty of this book was autism representation. I absolutely scored how Adam and Aaron were written. As a teacher it was beautiful to see these boys shine in their own ways. I loved how unique they were. I also loved how often Judah admitted to some of the same tendencies as his boys. I loved how he ran with them, how he sacrificed so much for them, and how he coparented them.
I loved Sol too. Her tenacity was impressive. I found myself cheering for her and even though she had some understandably emotional reactions in the book she was one of the most level headed moms ever. I loved her sacrifices for her kids too. But I also respected the things that she did for herself to heal. Very impressive.
I really appreciated the timeline of the romance in this book. I loved that it wasn't rushed into. I loved that Judah and Sol found happiness without sacrificing their relationships with their kids.
I highly recommend this book but do appreciate the author's warning that there is past mention of death of a parent to cancer. I didn't lose my mom to cancer but it was a prolonged illness so I appreciated the warning.
I received an advanced copy of this book through NetGalley. This is my honest review.

I was so fortunate to grab this on NetGalley when it was offered as ‘read now’ for a limited time.
I loved this book, I love Soledad and her determination and that she gets a second chance.
Kennedy’s writing is so moving, she treats all the characters with such care. These are true love stories that happen in a full life which means the side character are also developed.
