Ahh I had a full beautiful review written and something happened to it! So this one is a bit less well put together
I loved the authors debut book, so when I was sent a widget for Never Planned on You I jumped on it and knew I’d enjoy! The writing was spot on and the plot was original feeling.
The only thing I’d advise people sensitivity / trigger wise is that there is some adjacent to cheating in the story. It didn’t entirely feel the same as cheating to me, but it was still some pretty big lying and made me feel sad, even though I enjoyed the story.
I had a rough time with the book for no reason of the authors, because the MMC is my ex-husband’s name, and I don’t have fond thoughts of him. So it was hard reading a romance book with his name. 🫤
Overall, it was a cute romance and I loved the unique trope twist. Thanks so much for the arc!
