Seriously, this truly is the best of the romantic suspense subgenre I have EVER read. Let me tell you, I have read some where I just skim over the “suspense” part cause at my heart I am a romance reader but the actual action or tension part of this plot I was at the edge of my seat and it was overdone or take up too much time, these love interests really got time to breathe. Ugh the second chance aspect hit me in the gut. Y’all minor spoiler but I know a lot of cowboy small town romance lovers want to know- NO he was not with anyone else in the years they were apart!!!! Their love for each other is all consuming! It makes total sense why he had to let her go the first time and the roadblocks make sense as to how angsty they come back together this time. I loved their whole time together and they had so much on page romance, including the hottest MMC POV spice, but also discussions of the past and tentative future. I love surprise pregnancy anything pregnancy romance so I knew I’d love that aspect of this but I truly think even if you don’t or feel neutral this is handled incredibly well. I went into this thinking I’d like it, well I couldn’t put it down and thought about it when I wasn’t reading it and ending up shedding a tear by the end. Highly recommend.
