My Initial Thoughts

Single dad, well that trope drew me in straight away. I loved the banter between them both. The cover is stunning and makes it an absolutely perfect autumn read. When the dedication reads "To all the strong, independent badasses who'd like someone to lean on. Occasionally." I was also drawn in about the fact "Gennie with a G" is a stunt women! I've been looking for this trope for a while so I hit gold with this!


Plot

The plot is romantic and tense, full of sunshine via Abby. I like how the dynamics for this are turned around and not the average plot line. The emotions were there and you can feel them intensely. Mostly you can feel the tension between Nathan and Gennie but it really was the little things that made this book so amazing. "He's a grumpy single dad hiding from his past. Until a fearless daredevil topples his world."


Characters 

The characters are so loveable, and Abby is just adorable. The push and pull and slow burn between Gennie and Nathan certainly has its sizzling moments.

Recommend

i recommend this to anyone that is looking for a autumn romance read with the perfect hit of spice.

Favourite Quotes

" Perhaps one day he'd be ready to let someone into their little bubble. But for now, he had Abby, and she had him, and that was enough. It had to be."

"His presence was huge, filling the forest. This man was a whole vibe."

"The strong, silent ones who wore their grumpiness like armour were as soft as jelly on the inside."

"If i wanted haggis, I'd ask for haggis. But right now, I want a juicy, artery clogging, all-American cheeseburger. Served with a side of Scottish broodiness."

"You're telling me that throwing yourself out of a helicopter onto a moving train is nothing, but a few cloud farts freak you out?"

Favourite Chapter/s

Chapter 11 & 16.
Summed up in one sentence

A perfect seasonal romance,

Overall Wrap up

This is written in third person over a single timeline. 'a stunt women, he's the grumpy older single father. The spice in this for me was absolutely the right amount, the plot was there throughout, always something happening. At one point I shed a tear, and gasped hoping things wouldn't go wrong. When the slow burn starts burning, it's everything and so worth the wait. Third act breakup crops for a while, but its all worth it in the end. I really enjoyed this from beginning to the end. And the epilogue was just everything you could wish for. I also enjoyed the authors acknowledgements and how she come up with the broody single dad, and daredevil stunt women.
