this has to be the fluffiest most heart warming book i have ever read and i don't regret picking it up, even if it meant staying up until 2 am to binge this book because it was so damn worth it. 

the only thing i hate is that wes bennet RAISED MY DAMN STANDARDS. where the hell can we find a man like that? NO WHERE IN THIS UNIVERSE. i literally cried because of my happiness and jealousy because yay liz, but like, i want him too??? damn you wes!! you make it impossible for me to find a good partner irl because my standards are too high now. please. 

i love liz's character so much and i totally get her with the whole mom thing and i just adore her style. why would anyone hate it? she's literally sunshine and rainbows. i love it.

little to miscommunication and it's just the best light hearted romance books i have read so far. i loved the writing and i loved every single character here! i loved helena as well. i loved fitzpervert. i loved joss. even noah and adam! as well as michael! i appreciate how communicative all of the characters were (towards the end) and i was crying, laughing, giggling, blushing, slapping my knee at 2 am in bed in the dark. 

i can't wait to invest in a physical copy of this book because it's literally so worth it.

the fact that i read this book with taylor swift playing for 3-5 hours LMAO. i can't stop crying because of how good this book is. it's perfect. it definitely got me out of an ongoing slump. i can't handle my heart.
