you’re kidding 😭😭😭😭
every book I’ve read from this author I’ve loved. I am in love with the people and stories she writes!!!

tropes:
✨single dad/nanny h
✨age gap (13 years)
✨grumpy/sunshine
✨small town romance
✨frenemies-to-lovers
✨forced proximity

Willa and Cade were a good match and I loved Luke like, that kid made this book so much better😭😭😭😭😭

“She has city girl written all over her. She has wild child written all over her. She’s not some sweet, small-town girl. She’s the girl who told me she’d be ready for me to inspect her undergarments and didn’t think twice about it. She has temptation written all over her.”

they take their time into making a move, but I wouldn’t consider this a slow burn just because it’s pretty obvious they’re into each other from the beginning. I kinda love how their relationship was very mature and it progressed naturally. Didn’t feel forced at all, loved that.

All the domestic shit had me giggling like a little girl, and then when Daddy Cade turned on DADDY CADE 🥵🔥 jesus christ.

“The joke’s on you though. I wouldn’t last ten minutes and just because you’d be quiet doesn’t mean I would be.”

I kinda loved Willa. She loved fiercely and she wasn’t afraid to defend her family. I fell for Cade too, but it bothered me how he would bring Willa’s age every time something happened between them… like dude we get it, you feel old, stop 💀💀

but everything else? I loved. The family?? Cade’s dad?😭😭😭 stop. they have my whole heart.

“It hits me hard as we drive in a companionable silence that Willa is that person. My person.”

I had a blast here. The *twist* at the end… I’m not mad about it, honestly. I’m happy with it, it was a bit cliché but I’m okay. It was nice that they talked about it like grownups and I loved how the family supported them.

This was great. Give me more. Like next book is childhood friends reunite when one of them is engaged and the other is pining over them???? GIMME!!!! NOWWW!!!!!!

“And I realize in that moment maybe I am heartless after all, because the beautiful girl with the copper hair grinning back at me right now is the one who stole it.”
