It's an okay good, maybe can be read if you need a pick me up. I was left with a lot of emotions after reading it. I'm a little disappointed, because I had hyped this book up, but it was just... not that good. 
The main annoyance was the
MC's overuse of the word "pheromones", I thought it would play an important aspect later on, but it got dropped towards the end. There was also the fact that MC didn'  want children but she was made to just be okay with the love interest having a child, and was never discussed how it'd affect their relationship.

It is very emotional at some parts, with aspects that most of us can relate to. 
The last 1/4 of the book felt rushed and sloppily put together to try to get a happy ending.
