Second chance romance isn’t my favorite trope - it usually is just-okay. But this one is so well done!! The trauma this couple has been through is so multilayered. While I am newly married and childless right now, seeing the grief that this entire family has to endure was so heartbreaking. I was rooting for Yasmen and Josiah so hard. Just one bed really cinched this one as a win also - I’m a sucker for this trope!
