Absolutely loved this book and the way it ended! Their daughter Maddie was a cutie pie from beginning to end and I’m so glad the mc’s were able to work it out together to give her the proper family their little one deserves 🥹🫶

this was amazing. I have mostly sara to thank for this incredible reading experience. this was so beautiful. the characters were flushed out well, loveable and I absolutely loved maddie. I never like kids in books because I don't see myself have a kid, but maddie was so cute. I wish I could spend another 448 pages with these characters. it hurts to think about the fact that my favourite characters are not real and are not just living their lives rn. I think sara and des can relate :)

I really liked this book. From my reading history you can tell I don’t read a lot of second chance romance but I enjoyed this one. I loved his redemption and how it wasn’t solely focused on her but also in their child. I will say I do wish Kennedy was kinder to his recovery but honestly I don’t blame her with all she went through and gave up for him.
