This was such a cute book. I was gagged that it takes place 10 months after the initial one, but it was a beautiful love story for sure. I’m so happy for Bobbi, and her man (his name escapes me right now) came to an important realization that was very much needed, and I love that for him. 

Acknowledging that they are in love never seems to be the hard part in these stories, it’s always something else, which I appreciate. I don’t have time for the mental gymnastics of trying to convince oneself that this isn’t serious or whatever.

I will say, though, that I was blindsided that the epilogue was just… not about the original couple at all.
