My least favourite of the series so far. It's a marriage in trouble.

Aiden and Freya have been married almost a decade but something has been off - so much so that she kicked him out and sent him to stay with her brother Ren to get some space. You know this at the end of the 2nd of the Bergman Brothers series.  

Aiden has GAD. His anxiety is a big part of the story

and the overall conflict

. 

I saw the twist coming. I didn't really like it. The janitor being the deadbeat dad Aiden was anxious about being nothing like when they're planning for a baby didn't feel necessary for me. We're told Aiden goes to solo therapy but we never see it. He needed to sort through his hang ups anout becoming a dad - not really a confrontation. But that's my two cents

You get lots of the Bergman family in this one. It is sweet to get them all together.

If you’re looking for a romance that is a marriage that’s gone cold and needs to be jumpstarted again, this one’s for you. I haven’t read this type of romance before and as someone married for about 10 years, a lot of it was relatable. It was very realistic and sweet. Not my fav in the whole series (#2 so far) but it was good!

I loved that this was a romance set within a marriage and showing all the work that you have to do to *keep*  falling in love and getting your HEA.

The last quarter of this one felt a little all over the place. The plot twist with Aiden's dad felt unnecessary to me and it was a little weird to have so much conflict in the last 2 or 3 chapters of the book. It was raw and emotional and fantastic otherwise.

Though the topic of a struggling marriage is heavy, the problems in this story seem so easily solved compared to many real life causes of problems in marriages. So this book was emotionally heavy, it wasn’t very heavy and it didn’t bring me down (much).
