How freaking sweet. I loved these characters and all their imperfections. They really grew together, and you seen true childhood trauma being worked through. It was lighthearted and tough in all the right spots.

I loved this world. Sorcha and Eamonn were great characters, and I loved their love story. It did feel a little disjointed with how events came to pass and the time periods were off. Overall, though, I had a great time, and I look forward to more in this world.

This was a super cute fun read. Nothing mind blowing, but it kept me entertained. The last 100 pages were quite a bit of a jumble tho. Lots of things going on that didn't make a lot of sense.

This was so incredibly cute. I'm pretty sure there was a smile on my face the majority of the time while reading. It touched on hard things and put them in a way that just made sense. Really made me remember some of my favorite things about when I was pregnant with my boys. I love my husband, but damn Shep is an absolute dream man.
