I liked the plot and romance of this one more than A Merry Little Meetcute, but the conflict and 3rd act breakup was worse and I found Winnie so annoying at times. In the first book, I could see why Bee was mad at Nolan, but I also saw Nolan's perspective and it was a nuanced and complicated issue. This conflict felt contrived and forced. Kallum spent the entire book being responsible and caring, why did no one around him think he was responsible and caring just because he made a few very human mistakes? I did enjoy the surprise pregnancy (I know a lot of people don't like that in their books), but I think the story focused too much on that and not enough on the romance. The first half was so strong and then it just went downhill. I really adored Kallum though and his romance with Winnie was so tender and the sex scenes were very well done. I'm excited for the third book, especially because we haven't read much about Isaac.cloudycity_reads's review against another edition

Although I greatly enjoyed the spice of the book, age and body types of the characters, and the education of sex vs shame and purity culture with the damage it can do. Learning to speak your boundaries and what you can for yourself. That being said the pace of this book and the .
I get what the authors were trying to show there is more than the HEA, which I agree should be shown. While in my normal state of mind I most likely would of loved. Seasonal depression me just wanted to know there was an HEA.
