 Hannah Bonam-Young did it again. Y'all told me this was a book that would make you okay with the pregnancy trope... you didn't prepare me for how freaking goooooood it is!!!

This is also the first novel I've read with amputation representation I'm pretty sure, and DEFINITELY the first book I've read with a small hand. Everything was handled so purposefully, and just well done.

Win and Bo are my everything now. UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

It's super hot! and also laugh out loud funny. I don't think I've ever giggled or gasped this much at a book in the office. I didn't touch it for a couple weeks between the first 2/3 and the last 1/3 and it was strange how immediate the giggling started again and Will would just look over like wtf dude.

This book was with funny, sweet, sexy, and tearjeaeking book I've read this year! The characters are loveable and love their quick witted banter between each other. Their relationship is very fluffy, sexy, and full of acceptance of one another.

This book was so wholesome and also I loved the dimensions you see in the characters, also loved that we basically got two epilogues especially getting to see them develop and their family develop was the BEST

The first 50 to 70% of this was so sweet and wholesome. They communicate so well and respect each other a lot. That did keep up in the end, but it just became a bit too much for me. I usually don't like pregnancy in novels, and I could semi look past it at first but then it became a bigger plot point and when she mentioned feeling the baby kick I felt the ick just thinking about that.
So yeah, I think this semi-low rating is definitely a me thing and not the book. Aside from the pregnancy I loved the romance and the inclusivity.
