Goddammit! Can’t a girl get railed by her gold-plated vibrator, or get a decent smoke in for once in her life around here?!

Thoughts: 💡

I enjoyed this one even with the traditional romcom tropes. The reverse age gap gave the romance a really interesting spin, and the banter and tension kept me hooked. We didn’t see as much of the other moms and kids in this book but there were still a few funny mishaps and we got to see Kai come out of his shell. 

I think my favorite part was the look inside Shay’s mind and even Rowan’s. They both had complicated struggles between Shay’s crippling anxiety and Rowan’s past traumas with his family and ex.

I love that Blue Nose did this audio with a line by line narration. It just sounds better to my ears when the MCs have the same voice throughout the entire book. Samntha and Teddy both did a great job bringing the characters to life and pouring emotion and inflection into the story.
