The emotions that this book puts you through is an absolute roller coaster! It grips you by the heart from the very first page and just doesn’t let you go! It’s a heart-wrenching story of love, loss, resilience, and found family. 

Sarah’s journey from isolation to unexpected motherhood is very moving and totally relatable. Ashley portrays Sarah as a woman who has learned to rely solely on herself, only to have her world turned upside down by Paul adds an amazing aspect to the story! She also gives us some amazing plot twists when the monster from Sarah’s past comes creeping back into her life to ruin it! It’s adds the perfect layer of suspense to this beautiful love story. 

This book not only explores the complexities of relationships but also delves into the strength and courage it takes to face one’s fears and fight for what truly matters.

I absolutely loved the accidental pregnancy trope along with the found family. I highly recommend this book if you’re looking for a good heart gripping, cry worthy, love story!
