I just loved this book. It's so earnest, sweet, and touching. I'm usually not a fan of the trope of surprise pregnancy or one-night-stand turned pregnancy, but I thought it was handled really well and made a lot of sense. The chemistry between Win and Bo is immediate - it's not easy to write a compelling and believable first-night stand that is actually sexy, and Bonam-Young really pulls it off - and the slow falling in love is really lovely. I also appreciated the care with which Bonam-Young addressed how both Win and Bo responded to the surprise pregnancy; there was a discussion of options, space for all the emotions they might feel, and a realistic approach to the inherent logistics. This book didn't shy away from hard topics, but was just brimming with love. I can't wait to read her other books!
