Out of the first three Abby Jimenez books I have read, this is definitely the best one. Adrian and Vanessa were extremely lovable and their varying lives connecting over a baby crying seemed strange but fitting. I truly loved Adrian and his eventually support and carefulness towards Vanessa. In comparison, to the other books Vanessa and Adrian seemed to be strong characters and more reason to be together and fight for one another. Very heartwarming and sweet story surrounded by real tragedy. The reason for the four star rating was due to the extremely fast breakup and turn around between the two. I think would have been better through this part of the storyline being developed more rather than wrapped up in the last 50 pages.
