3,75 stars, good fast read about second chance romance
Hardly 2 ⭐. It was like reading wattpad but much harder to get the idea. I read it for 4 hours and I don't know so much the story except that Lu was 16 years old, broke up with him, after that found that she is pregnant and wrote him a letter. Without a response from him or his family (not once mentioned) she assumed that he doesn't want anything with them. Six years later she is in university, mother, paying for her, Jack, their house, her mother's hospital bills AND working in nightclub. If she was on drugs it would have been possible only half way so you can see how it's impossible that to happen. Her friends watched Jack more than she. Let's not begin to talk for Jack... It was bad. The mother, her friends and Alec - they don't have any history... Very disappointed, do not read it, its not worth it.
couldn’t finish it
The premise was great, story as it unfolds fine. But the character just weren’t 3-dimensional, Laura was okay I guess as the protagonist and narrator we get more of her. But Alec was just too perfect.
Spoilers ahead
Soo he finds out he has a random child he never knew about. He’s fine, no unresolved feeling. He never knew about the child but is consoling her. No doubts about whether she kept him from him on purpose. No idea why they broke up. Or who stole the letter. No one’s curious. She breaks up with him again without consulting him -even though he was ganna quit to be with her- to save his career. There’s no spectrum of emotion. No mistakes or bad word. Alec is entitled to his feelings but no one is that emotionally mature. It’s bad writing/under developed character or he’s repressing his feelings and is a serial killer on the side as way to let out his deeper darker feelings that allows him to repress himself.

there was nowhere near enough grovelling or character development here.
this was totally giving wattpad story - with the very convenient opportunities landing in the girl's lap with basically zero effort, the 20-something year old mother acting like she's still in high school...
like, you don't find out you fathered a child and your immediate concern is sleeping with the girl again? and you don't spend the whole lead up to the second chance meeting saying how much this guy broke your heart, then jump straight into a relationship with him again? there was no hesitation, no taking into consideration how your child might be affected by bringing a random man he doesn't know into his life straight away, no second guessing?
the conflict was also hilarious - like two pages of moping then a super convenient sad thing happens that brings that all to an end. conflict to resolution within 10 pages is crazy

The book had a lot of potential but it was just really boring and repetitive. I found the heroine annoying and I didn’t care about any of the characters or the writing.
The second chance romance wasn’t good. Not enough groveling and I didn’t feel the love between Laura and Alec. Would have liked it better if there were chapters set in the past where I saw them both fall in love and how they worked as a couple. Because the author didn’t give that I didn’t care if the characters got back together.
