4.5

⭐️ 4.5 - I typically don’t gravitate toward the “unexpected pregnancy” trope, especially from a one-night stand, but surprisingly, this was done exceptionally well. There’s no third-act breakup, no miscommunication, no messy or toxic relationship—just great communication and well-developed characters. In my opinion, Shef was the standout (what a guy!), while Ethan’s character growth was genuinely satisfying. The portrayal of pregnancy hormones Eve was experiencing was both hilarious and terrifying, and, most importantly, the baby is deeply loved and welcome into this world. A truly satisfying happy ending! 🥰
