10 years ago Cassidy and Callum were best friends and then feelings happened and the friendship fell apart. Now Cassidy runs a florist shop and is living with her best mate, and Callum has moved across the hall from her following the breakdown of his marriage and settling into being a single dad.

This is a debut novel by Devon May a fellow bookstagrammer who was kind enough to provide me an ARC! This was a sweet romance and addresses big topics like infertility and making decisions around what family looks like to us when that happens, which I felt Devon approached with sensitivity as someone who doesn’t have that lived experience. For spice fans it is there, but it’s not a heavy theme of the book. For those who love second chance romances - I reckon this is one you’ll love!
