The most beautiful part was seeing her learning to love herself and letting others love her the way she deserved.

I loved how she embraced it because these things didn’t define her they just made her who she is. And that didn’t take away or make her less than capable. Frankie is on the autism spectrum and she has rheumatoid arthritis which requires her to walk with a cane. I wish I could list every moment that made me go *swoon* but the list would be never-ending I will just say that I loved the not so ironic use of terms of endearment.īut most importantly I loved (and I mean “loved’ as in my “heart hurt”) the representation and how accurate it was.

He worshipped the ground she walked on, which should be the standard.Įvery cute moment they shared were the death of me and the intimate scenes they had were hot but they didn’t simply have sex (which is you know, pretty cool good for them!) but they made love and it was beautiful. He loved everything about her, the good and the bad and treated her wonderfully. It was a nice change! It also helps that Ren loved her grumpy self and didn’t expect her to smile constantly, he really valued when that happened. I like the fact that Frankie (aka the heroine) was the grump and that Ren (male interest) was the sunshine. I absolutely love the grump/ sunshine trope and there’s nothing better than pining in romance (in my humble and completely biased opinion) and this book delivers .

I felt like I was going to faint because I just had too many mushy, “omg they’re so cute I can’t” feelings. I absolutely adored the first one but this one made me swoon. I read the first book in the Bergman Brothers series which was recommended to me by a lovely friend but she especially recommended this one to me.

I cannot stress how in love with it I am more accurately, I love this book as much as Frankie and Ren love each other, that means: a lot. You know that feeling when you finish a book and feel broken but whole at the same time? Where you feel like you’ve stepped inside a dream and once it’s over you have to go back into your real life, deal with things and you fell very very sad about it? Well this was me after finishing this gem of a book.
