The overall premise was interesting.
The execution was agonizing.

The rating is for me. It’s a sweet book and I don’t usually read sweet. I wasn’t really in the mood for sweet. I would put spice at 1 🌶️. Church and god are also a big ick for me. It wasn’t overbearing just there. There was also a lot of lying that was part of their quirky relationships and it made me uncomfortable. The book was well written and a sweet romance for those looking for that. Don’t let my curmudgeoness ruin that for you.

OW drama is one of my triggers
Otherwise it was well written and a good start.
I wish I had read this series in order.
The miscarriage is in explicit detail which was triggering for me. Please take care of you. The rape is also in explicit detail.
Otherwise it was well written and a good start.
