This was unexpectedly good. I was hooked from the beginning after being teased with this couple since book one and getting to finally read their story was so exciting. I loved Teddy and Gus both individually so when they got together I loved them even more. The story that Teddy goes on and the things she struggles with and the things she’s insecure about felt so raw and real and I loved reading about them. Her friendship with Emmy is everything I want my friendships to be and such a good depiction of female friendships. Gus’s ability to love wholeheartedly made me fall in love with him as well as his ability to take the weight off of others while still looking out for himself. The spice was great and there was just the right about and baby being the nickname for this book was everything and more. My only two main complaints are that the story started off a bit slow for the first quarter and I thought the writing style as a whole was a bit choppy and disconnected. But I still had the best time reading this and am so excited for the final book to come out.
