I absolutely loved the open honesty between Win and Bo. Their banter and interactions felt so real, but they still had that great rom-com quality I love.
I was so happy exes didn't make a reappearance, and than the author gods for no third act breakup. This had my heart swooning and sighing. I would love to read more from this author 💕

There is nothing better than opening a book and having it feel like a winner from chapter one! Hannah Bonam-Young took two complete strangers at a Halloween party and instantly created the most nerdy, tender, smile-inducing chemistry. I was listening to my audiobook with heart eyes.
I adored these characters. It was amazing to see such eager support from Bo. He didn't give it a second thought. Their slow-burn romance was so soft, so deeply romantic. The loveliest example of a healthy, unproblematic relationship.
The emotional moments really snuck up on me! I loved having the pregnancy force Win and Bo to acknowledge their insecurities, communicate through them, and create the most beautiful fresh start together. Very much enjoyed this one!

THE BAD: The story is only told from Win's POV and I feel like it would have been even better if we had Bo's POV, too. I also felt that the middle dragged a bit.
Favourite quote: "You are my soul's purpose, Win. To know you, to love you, to build a family with you, to spend every day taking care of you, to watch you shine and get all the good things you deserve out of this life."
