This was a cute and enjoyable read, that had a lot more spice than I thought it would going into it. It was a cute premise and was done fairly well. I enjoyed the aspect of Nova being a former beauty queen and then having to mother her sister when a tragic accident happened. And I loved how Ronan was the NFL star turned high school coach. Both the characters how more depth than I expected and I feel like that made it easier to enjoy.
I’m a sucker for second chances, and the way that Nova disliked him when they meet again made me happy, considering all the happened the first time they met. Seeing Ronan overcome his grief and the trauma he experienced when he lost his first wife was heartbreaking to read about, but also so enlightening. And seeing Nova express the love she had for her mother and the memories she once experienced with her was so heartbreaking to read about.
This book was enjoyable and it was also a really quick and easy read. The one thing I am just not a fan of is the Star Wars references. I’ve noticed that this author loves Star Wars, but coming from someone who has never enjoyed that universe, it gets annoying to hear about every chapter or so.
