TW: talks of child abuse and neglect

This book was pretty cute. But every time Rick called Kai pup I needed to put it down. And it happened way too frequently.

He also made a comment of him needing to talk to Vanessa to make sure she knows she needs to wait until Sammi is older before anything were to happen. That was super fucking gross and concerning. Try maybe not waiting until she's legal, but going for someone your own age and not being a creep? It was doubly weird because there was NO evidence of Vanessa feeling anything for Sammi, so why even throw that in? Sammi has a crush, so what? I never would've thought Vanessa would ever even humor it until that moment.

I feel like there wasn't any real depth to the characters, but I didn't mind too much considering what this book is.

Overall, fine, but I am looking forward to the next story! I'm interested in those two characters as a couple!
