Omg I’ve never read a more wholesome book. Zero miscommunication. Bo is total book boyfriend material. There are no breakups.. just building a good vibes.

You need fluff! This is where you get fluff but with real shit. I cried when learning about Bo’s mother.. learning about both there paths just pulled the story together. If you like Abby Jimenez.. you’ll love this read!

My heart feels so full right now.

I don't even know where to start with this review so I'm going to start with Bo who has quite easily just become on of my favourite book men of all time. Honestly this story was incredible I know a lot of people are put off because of the one night stand pregnancy trope because I usually am but this book was written perfectly.

I wish we got a few more in-depth scenes or moments but all in all incredible.

tropes: one night stand, pregnancy, soul mates.

“I love you, Win. I love you so much it makes me feel like I’ve hated everything else in my life up until now. Nothing compares to what I feel for you. Not even close.“

I’ve been seeing this book in the book community although not a lot compared to “booktok” books. I haven’t seen anybody reviewed this in a negative way so I thought that even with only a few reels about it, it should be an amazing read. And it was, for me. I devoured it. Devoured the relationship between Win and Bo. Such unique names and nicknames too. I knew this book has a “kid” trope in it but I did not expect it to be an “accidental pregnancy” trope (i think that’s a thing).

When you read about two people hitting it off on the get-go, it makes you hope that you’d encounter such experience with another person. To be honest, that was me and my current partner. First time we met, it was just instant connection (at least on my side). Like Win and Bo, it was topics after topics and you just can’t shut up because it conversation just don’t stop. Sure, they weren’t ready to be in a relationship when they met but they both had to be weeks after. You can’t deny that Win won out by having Bo as the father because you can’t ask for anybody more perfect than Bo. Bo was just amazing, to say the least. The way he was happy and accepted the pregnancy for what it was - a blessing. Hannah also writes the best side characters too! The wits and banters and just the interactions between all characters are just hilarious that made me really laugh out loud at 2 in the morning.

Definitely recommend this especially if you like seeing disability representation!!! It was just written beautifully. It was such a blast seeing the two of them became acquaintances to roommates to friends to lovers to parents.

Win & Bo were so adorable!! I found myself rooting for them throughout the book and really wanted them to get their happy ending together. I loved how gentle they were with one another. The side characters were also so lovable.

Really enjoyed this one. Win & Bo were so cute together and Sarah & Caleb were entertaining. Loved all the relationships outside of Win & Bo as well. Watching their relationship grow was really special. Up until the end I would have given it 5 stars but then it got TOO cheesy and perfectly wrapped up. Loved the disability rep - it was important to the characters and their development but it wasn’t the main piece of the story - seemed realistic to me (as an able bodied person).
