“You make everything brighter, Poppy.” - Bowie

"Bowie’s heart opens more all the time. I feel like I see more of his guard dropping nearly by the minute." - Poppy

Even though this book has a surprise pregnancy, there was still time to get to know each other before Poppy took a pregnancy test. Becca, Bowie’s daughter really likes Poppy and she loves spending time with her, and of course Bowie is there too and he really loves seeing Poppy with his daughter. Bowie is a really great partner and friend. All Becca ever wanted was a mother. Her dad is really great but she missed having a mother. Also Martha the dog was so fun too, Becca has Down Syndrome and Martha really fits into their family and could help and understood her in moments that others couldn't.

This book went from:

“I wish Poppy was my mommy,” - Becca

To:

“Daddy, I have a mom!”- Becca

And those moments were so beautiful (yes, I cried, she just wanted to be loved)! Not only did Becca get a mother and did she became a big sister but her dad also got an amazing, loving partner that can reassure him that she's staying. He's giving his children the loving childhood that he never had. And of course there are lots of fun and loving/meaningful moments between the "single" dad's and their partners with Poppy! I can't wait to read Penn's book! Also that wedding was definitely a original experience!

I received an ARC copy of this book!
