Asthma, the word itself brings fear as this disease can cause so much confusion, pain and difficulties for those with it or those who are related to having this disease.
To involve that into the main foundation of the story is difficult, but the author has done it beautifully. The story is sweet romantic and perfect for the holiday. Not to forget the humor, the emotions and the overthinking thoughts!
This sweet romance is about a single mother whose son is having asthma and Brock, the doctor who has lost his sister to the exact same disease. The doc has also lost his wife two years ago to cancer. They find reassurance with each other and fall in love. The story may be simple but the way its written is rather beautiful and touching. But since the main plot is based on the kid with asthma I had some misgivings about the book.
There is also the factor of money, factor of medical worries and a baggage of past, which is the perfect recipe for a wonderful romance.
But there was an instance that actually made me cringe once in the story, that is how Erin keeps on telling about being a bad mother. I don't think so. I thought she was an amazing mom. I wanted to smack her in the head and say out loud that "lady you are a single mother. Things happen, problems come but so do good times and joy!" But thankfully the doctor does that but in a soft sweet way. That completely made me happy with the book.
