Sweet Sunshine by Jessica Prince

5.0

I loved this book so friggin much I am so sad it's over. If you haven't read Wildflower I highly recommend it, not because you'd be lost in this book without having read it, but simply because these characters are everything. The best friends, Harlow and Noah, are so well portrayed as the best friends you want in your corner as you take on this crazy world. The only characters you hate are the ones you're suppose to hate because you're rooting for Derrick to finally open his big beautiful hazel eyes and see Chloe's the one.
Eliza is the sweetest little girl ever & Derrick is the best dad. Nothing hotter than a swoon worthy leading fellow who is a loving dad. Just saying.
Chloe was adorable, funny, and feisty and is very relatable in her awkwardness and love of treats. I love the leading lady to feel real and like someone I would be friends with.
The relationship wasn't fast and I loved that. It made when they finally got their sense knocked into them even better and worth the wait! There was plenty of drama with the deadbeat "mom" but not so overdone that you roll your eyes & just say alright already. The only alright already was waiting for her to get what she so deserved.
Overall this story was beautifully told. It had me swooning and laughing and getting teary eyed at the punch you in the gut emotions that that sweet little nine year old will pull from you if you are a mother yourself.
5 beautiful sweet sunshine stars. And side note*** I can't wait for Eliza's story!!
