maybe I'll remember to write a review when I haven't been non stop reading until 2:30 am and I can see through my tear filled eyes.... oh this book!!! The 90s? Hot, single dad who who looks every bit of the 90s? who wears his heart on his sleeve and tries everyday to be a good man... and Halley?! My God I felt like she was writing my story, except I unfortunately don't fall for an older man, but an idiot with a tinfoil hat - this is why I don't read romance.... I end up a blubbering idiot because I AM this romantic who has never gotten to experience this kind of romance. I don't know why I do this to myself.

you won't regret reading this... Jennifer Hartmanns writing and story telling is too damn good. I will say TW: age gap but push past that please... it's not done in a disrespectful way, at least I didn't feel that at all. ugh I'll try to write a more cohesive review later. if not, just know this is a 6 star read for me. I base ratings on feelings and if I can't stop sobbing not only because I'm sad but because I'm happy?? yeah, that's one of THOSE books. I pray I find my Reed one day.
