Book: Those Two Words
Author: Ronnie Mathew’s
Rating: 4/5
Spice Level: 🌶️🌶️
Those Two Words by Ronnie Mathews was a beautiful surprise for me, especially as second-chance romance isn’t a trope I typically seek out.
Patrick and Johanna’s story felt like an emotional hug—balancing heartbreak, mental health struggles, and the sweet nostalgia of childhood friends to lovers. What stood out most was the genuine portrayal of mental health challenges, particularly Johanna’s experiences with anxiety. It made her journey feel relatable and authentic. Patrick, as the patient and kind single dad, stole my heart with his unwavering support and care.
If you’re looking for a romance that balances heartfelt emotion with swoon-worthy chemistry, this book is one I’d recommend!
