I think I rated this so highly purely because I listened to the audiobook and really loved the narration but I have a feeling I might not have loved it as much if I had read it with my eyeballs - although you never know. The narration truly was great and I loved that it was dual narration.

It was really feel good, there was some fantastic own voice chronic illness representation, it was super steamy and the supporting characters were so loveable. I actually made a mistake and thought I had downloaded Thunder Thighs but ended up listening to this one instead and I’m so glad I did!

I would recommend it if you love the idea of a series with amazing disability and chronic illness representation, a whole lot of butterfly inducing spice and a second chance romance.

This was such a good read. Definitely more steamy and I love a good second chance romance where it makes sense for the person to be given a second chance. Love that the author puts a lot of work into the disability rep, and shows that disabled people deserve love and romance too. The narrators did a wonderful job. Hope there are more books in this series.

trigger warnings: crohn’s disease flare ups, sexism and misogyny, sexual content, emotionally abusive parents, car accident, alcoholism, depression

I liked this so much more than the first one and I think it’s because I had lower expectations for the smut. The story is perfectly cheesy and dorky and the narrative arc was oddly short but since this was second chance it made sense for things to move faster. I thoroughly enjoyed that we got a double epilogue though!
