HBY writes such good romance omg. I think I liked this more than the first in the series! The end of that one felt too unrealistic for me. This one, in comparison, does feel a little lighter. There were still some heavy themes and a good amount of emotional depth, but the romance felt… more joyful? Matt is so adorable. I think I like him so much because he reminds me of my husband. What can I say — I love a golden retriever man. I loved rooting for them.
