Ahhh! This was so cute. I loved the single POV from the male - I haven’t read that before! The six kids were awesome and I loved the dynamic. The right amount of drama, tears (from me) and I laughed out loud too. This was playboy redeemed done right. Jake had redeeming qualities the whole time and was brought to his knees for Chelsea. Swooon. However, the third act felt a little forced and his inner thoughts didn’t seem to be explaining or working through things at all on his own. In the end, I really loved this.

I felt like I was watching a rom-com. It was funny, emotional and so sweet

Loved this book!
It’s not dramatic but it’s a little emotional, especially that stint at the courtroom with CSFA.

Will definitely reread this soon.

Such a good book, from a party girl to a ‘mother’ of six kids it a lot to ask from a person but Chelsea handles it as best as she can. Her and Jake’s first meet it’d probably say was love at first site, Jake just blends perfectly in the chaos but he can’t see that and for a man that has never really been in love or in a real committed relationship he deems himself underserving of Chelsea and the kids. But seeing Chelsea go on a date with someone else and mopping around so much it frustrates everyone working with him, they make him come to his senses and concludes that he is indeed deserving of them because he cares and knows all about Chelsea and the kids but he couldn’t even see that that was already loving them and being the person they need. I loved that they communicated with each other even tho they were mad and just how perfect they all mash together into a family.

This book made me cry, laugh smile and kick my feet in the air
I know I started it with the 2nd book but I hate series with different couples for each book I can never seem to get through them because I’m always more interested in the couple I first read about so I just started of with the book that excited me the most and that was this one and I’m so glad I did because if I hadn’t I probably wouldn’t have read this book and only read the first one and I would’ve missed out on this amazing book
