What a wild ride! I was captivated by this story from the beginning right until the end. I didn't want to put it down and couldn't wait to pick it up again to find out what was in store for these characters. I felt for both Quinn and Nora and thought this was an impossible situation that wouldn't have an outcome that truly satisfied both parties. Although, I was a fan of the ending and how Melissa chose to wrap the story up. Melissa's books are a pleasure to read and I strongly recommend them if you haven't picked up her books yet!
Favourite quote: "People had no idea the pain of it, the heartbreak. It wasn't only the failed cycles and negative pregnancy tests. It was the comments that implied she hadn't prioritized the right things, the assumptions that if she didn't have kids, it was her own fault. It was people judging her, thinking they knew best, acting superior simply because they'd won the fertility lottery."
