Read this in one night of insomnia. Not as in stayed up reading it, more like, woke up at 2:30am and brain just decided not to be tired until 5am. Was a good, easy-reading book to pass that time with. And I did enjoy it overall.
It was fluffy to a degree that felt unrealistic. Sometimes I like that, but in this case it meant I ended up finding the relationship less real-feeling, which isn't what you want from a book focused on a relationship!
While making interesting comments on co-parenting to a degree, I also felt that by focusing to the degree it did on the happy ending it also therefore had a bit less to say than the first one!
Overall still ok, but not one I'll be raving about!
