Molly McAdams has a way of writing such emotional books with characters who have these βtorturedβ backstories.

This one started off pretty good. I was really enjoying it, up to the moment where Emma wouldnβt reveal her past and these traumatizing moments for her. It started to carry on and on and on through the story until probably about 80% (I want to say) when it was finally revealed. It was just a bit too long for me in that aspect.
I really liked Reed. This big tattooed muscular man was Emmaβs prince charming anyway. He was so sweet and understanding. He never pushed himself on to her. I loved how much consent there was between their relationship.
I donβt mind children in romance books. But the thing that turns me off from them is when they start talking like theyβre not children. Nora, would go back-and-forth between talking like a child to talking like a teenager/adult. It really turned me off unfortunately. I will say that the female narrator did a pretty good job at voicing Nora. I find not a lot of narratorβs can voice children very well.
