This was enjoyable but it didn't wow me. It felt much more women's fiction than romance. I did greatly enjoy Eve's pregnancy journey but the deep feelings in the romance that I was being told was there was not felt (at least by me). It was sweet but not wowing or swoon inducing. The audiobook was very well narrated, the voice actor put a lot of emotion and thoigh into how she portrayed all the characters. I also enjoyed thay Eve was basically narrating the story as a stream of consciousness.

I have never felt more seen by a line from a book than this one: "Everybody had better stop touching me or I'm going to start spin-kicking well-meaning men."

It’s good. But if you go in thinking it’s an average romance story you might be disappointed. It’s more like a romantic fiction, rather than full romance. Theres a lot of realistic things matched with unrealistic things, and I found myself more sad that happy most of the time, especially in character dynamics. I also felt like the short end of the stick was being handed out left and right. The characters were well written though, the writing style was easy to fall into. It only has 1.5 spicey scenes, but they are full open door.

Ohhhh, this was supremely lovely. It’s about love in all its forms, from romantic to platonic to parental. I adore Shep, and everything he is, and I adore Eve’s journey throughout this book. Pregnancy and growing into the person you want to be are both really hard, so it was amazing watching Eve do both at the same time. A truly wonderful book that I won’t hesitate to recommend.
