Words from hubby - “ This story is so sweet it’s giving me a cavity” ☺️ coming from the back of Chloe Walsh’s Boys of Tommen series I think he was expecting something bad to happen to these two.
• Drama free
• Couples who communicate
• Refreshing diversity
• annoying but cute bff
Great little pick me up / comfort read if you’re after something sweet! I personally love a dual POV and that would have been perfection for me but honestly it’s not required too (that’s just my own 👌🏻).
Pregnancy troupe is one that I tend to avoid but I’m slowly coming around to it. Love the representation, the light humor and the communication between this newly navigating couple. It’s refreshing to get uncomplicated stories and characters.
My first book by Hannah Bonam-Young and I look forward to picking up her other books.

I will admit, I was beginning to think my hope for finding a romance book that I’d give 5 stars would never come, but this was it. I LOVE(D) this book and definitely recommend anyone wanting to read it to give it a chance.
I love the slow burn between Winn and Bo. I find myself relating to a lot of Winn’a internal struggles with fear and feeling stagnant and I love that she allows herself to grow and not only make room for Bo and her baby, but also herself. I too am making room for myself to fully flourish into who I want/need to be.
All the characters feel well rounded. I adore Winn’s relationship with Sarah just as much as I do with Winn’s relationship with Bo.
I love how they keep an honest and open communication style with each other, especially early on, talking about sexual health and birth control.
I LOVE how Bo is a good man, down to his core, with no ulterior motives. His kindness and generosity is something I hope to find in a partner myself.
I was cheering for them from start to finish, aching during their will they won’t they moments.
All in all this was a wonderful book, one I got from a booktok recs list. I’m not sure if the author has written any more stories but I’d eagerly pick them up if so.

And yes. Bo is absolutely as wonderful, emotionally vulnerable, caring, funny, and nerdy as you’d expect from a picture perfect book boyfriend.
