This book isn't only a lighthearted and adorable romance, but also a journey through the character's insecurities and issues. They felt so real, slowly unraveling their past and current emotions. They should clash and not work, but yet they bring out the best in each other. Seeing them grow and learn to accept that was such a wonderful journey.
I did have a problem 100% enjoying this, because sometimes characters would get a bit much. While yes, imperfection certainly is a part of what made the characters in this book so compelling, at times it became a too much, especially in the beginning.
It was all wrapped up beautifully, so I'm not sure whether I would like to read the next books, as I feel like this works really well as a stand-alone. We'll see how I feel next year when the second part comes out and whether I feel like I want to revisit Luc and Oliver.

I loved Luc, like, come on man, you can do better. And he knows what he’s worth.
Finally a book that also treats the gone father plot, in a realistic way.
Also, great characters, good story. And the patience of the Luc? WoW enormous
