This was my first ever romance/beach read. Main character’s name was a plant, and her ex called her Fernie, and her family/friends called her Baby jokingly from Dirty Dancing. Both were so trite and cringy.
I did learn about non parental postpartum depression for men.

I enjoyed this book! I thought the story started quick and stayed strong. I don't love a secret plot that is hinted throughout the book, especially when it ends up being somewhat anti-climatic (in my opinion), but I do like the two different timelines. I also don't love that Fern had to reach out to Will multiple times for them to finally talk, but I thought Will's personal struggles were explained well and made him more loveable as a character. I also thought their relationship came together in a reasonable way and timeframe at the end of the book.

Another great summer read Carley Fortune. I really loved Fern and her character development, but Will was kind of annoying and immature at times. Still cute, and not super cringey as far as romance goes.
