Explicitness: 🌶️🌶️🌶️ 

This was by far my favourite in the series so far and I would be surprised if the next one beat it, to be honest. The absolute highlight of this book was Summer and Winter’s sibling relationship, it made me cry because it was just so wholesome. In fact, I loved all the sisterhood vibes in this book because Winter’s relationship with Sloane is also really lovely (Willa can absolutely kick rocks at this point I have no interest in her). 

I adored both Winter and Theo and even though it was very sweet and a little cutesy which is something I usually don’t like a lot of, I still loved every minute. Also, this trope just hits so good and it’s an instant favourite of mine every time. This was sexy, a little cosy and really addictive. 

The only reason this didn’t get five stars was because these two muppets had unprotected sex after having just been through a surprise accidental pregnancy and assumed the pull out method was all good (Winter is supposed to be a doctor so this confused me). Genuinely, this annoyed me enough to knock off 0.25 points because it was completely out of character.   

I would recommend this if you love a secret or surprise baby trope, cinnamon roll MMCs and ice-queens who are still learning to deal with all their big emotions.
