From her poor choice in husband to the way that he tragically dies leaving her to raise their unborn son alone, she’s always felt like the universe has been laughing at her. Three hard months go by since his death, and it’s finally time to give birth. When her late husband’s best friend rolls into the hospital to meet her baby high and drunk, she can’t bear to see him throw his life away.
She refuses to lose a second man that she loves. The only way to protect her heart and her son is to issue an ultimatum. If Adam wants to still be part of their lives, he needs to clean his act up.
With the help of his brother, Adam does exactly that. He joins the military, and comes back changed man years later. Despite his struggles after his best friend’s death he’s always been someone Piper could count on, and now he’s also a great role model for her son. (Swoon) Things are seemingly perfect, but Piper is still refusing to let him into her heart. He’s more than proven himself, but it doesn’t seem like it’s enough.
I loved this book! I was apprehensive about the premise, but this book took me by surprise. I tend to be picky about my friends to lovers books, because they often lack the tension I’m craving. BUT NOT THIS ONE. I was on the edge of my seat! Although there’s some lack of communication here, I enjoyed watching the story play out. Piper is holding back and poor Adam doesn’t know why. There were times that I wanted to shake Piper and scream, “JUST TELL HIM,” but I completely understood her apprehension.
She’s knows her big secret is going to break Adam’s heart and I think I would have handled it exactly the same way. Despite my frustration, I loved watching them try to navigate their feelings and jumped with glee when a burst pipe helped move things along. Piper’s bad luck works in mysterious ways.
So far, I’ve enjoyed all the books in this series. this one had the perfect amount of angst. It was very heartfelt and had so many tender moments between Adam and Piper’s son. I appreciated the mental health rep, and the way each character handled their struggles. But most of all, I loved the healing. I was left feeling so satisfied in the end.
This book is adorable through and through.
