Review:

5 stars!!!

first things first this book dealt with alot of sensitive topics

-i love how this book has the fmc actually go to a sexual assault recovery group ( and have her actually help her get through her trauma without - it not being a huge part of her life. While this book is absolutely sad and heartbreakingly and amazingly emotional i absolutely loved it .

- i absolutely love kenan and lotus relationship!!

- this is a single dad romance and i love myself a good single dad romance ( this is different to the single dad romances ive read in the past as his daughter isnt like a baby or under 10 years old but is a teen!!!

- i really enjoyed seeing how lotus worked through her trauma and how understanding Kenan was that she wasnt ready for sex ( even if she didn’t tell him why) - i love how when she said i think im ready he was like are you sure . - i love that he asked what might trigger her when he found out about her being a csa surviver. i love that he listened to her story and IN NO WAY SHAMED HER !! - i love kenan so much and lotus to


- i really feel that the sex scenes in this book are emotional!! filled with so much love and arent just pure lust fuelled ( although i do like books with that in too) i just absolutely loved this about this

- it explores the reality of what a child/ teen may feel when experiencing their family breaking apart ( while experiencing their parents breaking up . - the reality of how much that child doesnt understand why their parents cant be together anymore and how confusing it can be for them . ( and i absolutely loved to see this be portrayed in a book!!

- one thing that annoys me is how quick to be angry kenan is ( i hate it when men are angry alot even if it is on behalf of their girl - however i still absolutely love both kenan and lotus

- I DID NOT KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT WHEN I READ THIS BOOK BUT I ENJOYed it alot

- this was my first ever kennedy ryan book and i absolutely love this and plan on reading more of her books this 2024

This whole book was just absolutely amazing aah

I was actually crying on the floor at one point whilst listening to this and I’m not ashamed in the slightest. Lotus and Kenan have the most special relationship and I might just cry again tbh

Kennedy Ryan is a brilliant writer! I enjoyed Lotus and Kenan SO MUCH. Their relationship really felt meant to be even while circumstances were messy. Highly recommend!
