Contemporary romance
Small Town Romance
Pregnancy/Serrogacy
Curvy FMC
Age Gap (10yrs)
Opposites attract
Forced Proximity
Found Family
Strong Side Characters
I could see how if you have a problem seeing ethics surrounding surrogacy, its process, and seeing a book make light of it… this book is not for you.
I love a good stoic man whose love language is acts of service. Add on a FMC who is strong and independent and it makes for great banter and a fun romance with lots of tension!
I was a little disappointed how negative the internal monologue of the FMC was about her own weight and body type.
There were lots of pop culture references, especially when we were given the teenage niece’s POV. I was really not a fan of having to wade through the modern slang/“brain rot” breaking up the flow of the book. I didn’t need her internal monologue about her own love life and plans in the book focusing on her Uncle’s romance.
Over all it was a cute book!
Thank you NetGalley and Harlequin Trade Publishing for an eARC of this book. All opinions are my own.
