*4.5* This book arrived one day, carefully flown by carrier pigeon, sent by a dear friend. It was the perfect book at the perfect time.

A sweet cheeky chicky nuggy of a story.

✔️80s Magnum PI mustache
✔️Single dad
✔️Authentic baby raising
✔️Live-in nanny
✔️Found family
✔️Undercooked chicken
✔️One bed
✔️HEA

All Toby knew of Mr Gideon Ellery was that he was thirty-four years old, a very well-established corporate finance manager, and a recently single new father to a twelve-week-old son.

I loved the side characters in the story, and all the family conversations. It was so true to life how our best friends try to save us from ourselves.

Slightly predictable, but also really adorable. Thank goodness for no third act break up!

Amina Predictable but adorable reads can be very special and sweet at times, so I'm glad this was the case, here. 🥰 Lovely review, Rain! 💞 Oh, and now, all I'm gonna think about is Tom Selleck for the character's profile! 😭

Is it the mustache or the space helmet you don’t like? 😂 Some readers have complained it’s a little too graphic in terms of baby care. So beware if you’re not a fan of children!!

I need a huge mustache emoji and I’m very sad there isn’t one 😂
