itselisabeth's review
I did not like the female main character, I thought I could get over it but the book has a slower pace and there are so many chapters written from her perspective, with internalized fat-shaming and her inability to form a close connection with others due to her childhood abandonment issues. It is a bit much of a "woe is me" situation, and her being unable to accept the good things in her life.
Also her saving all these farm animals and wanting to start an animal sanctuary rubs me the wrong way, as I think it is stupid. Especially since she herself eats chicken.

4.5
Overall: 4.5/5
Spice level: 3/5
Tropes: surrogate, breeding kink, age gap, grumpy/sunshine, found family, he falls first
Representation: FMC is plus size
CW: discussions of parental death, child abandonment
First of all, our FMC, Trista, is absolutely unhinged. In the best way. She has zero filter and is so down to earth and hilarious! And I love that's plus size and never fetishized by our MMC Wyatt. He loves her as is and every aspect of her.
This story has tropes I absolutely love when done right: he falls first, grumpy/sunshine, and the breeding kink (which comes as a result of Trista being a surrogate for Wyatt).
Wyatt and Trista have so much chemistry, it's explosive. They're both strong and can be stubborn but also both have huge hearts. Wyatt definitely showed that his love language was acts of service and repeatedly doted on Trista, even when she didn't want it.
The plot had some slow parts to it but overall the plot and pacing were well done. And I thoroughly enjoyed the found family that Trista had in the Fletchers. It was so heartwarming!
