A review by virgo_reader
The Road to Rose Bend by Naima Simone

2.5

In the author's note she says she loves Hallmark movies - and you can definitely tell.

When I checked out this book from Libby it actually opened to the novella in the back of the book, instead of the real chapter one. So I didn't realize that this featured a pregnant, recently divorced heroine who had a one night stand with her ex (who isn't the hero). Maybe it's just me but... I don't love a pregnant heroine. I think because I was pregnant last year I know how miserable and unglamorous it is. 

It had cute moments but it was underwhelming overall. I didn't buy that they were in love. And girl kept crying all over him!!

TW for fatphobic comments... death of a spouse/child during childbirth (past)... PTSD... bullying... death of a sibling (past)... neglectful parents / estranged relationship... estranged relationship with an ex
