This book 🫠

Rarely do you ever see a reverse age gap and I am 👏🏻 here 👏🏻 for 👏🏻 it. Via our FMC is freshly divorced, her husband cheated on her and the another woman is pregnant. This was hard on Via especially due to her infertility issues so she decided to pack up her life and move across the country for a fresh start. She picked a small town in Maine to open an Art store and finally live the life she always wanted to and follow her passion. Her first night in town she goes to a bar (thanks to her sister Izzy) and that’s when she first lays eyes on Reid, it was only supposed to be a one night stand. Reid is a freshly 21 year old hottie with glasses. He is so sweet and mature for his age due to loss he has gone through. He is confident, caring, and goes after what he wants. I adore him so much. Via and Reid’s story was so fun and not to mention hot, their chemistry was palpable. I loved seeing Via navigate through her healing from divorce, and learning to be loved again. There is so many layers to this story. You fall in love with every person you meet. 11:11 was perfection, I will be thinking about Via and Reid for weeks. This book is 5 stars, I highly recommend reading it. I cannot WAIT for Izzy’s book. 

Check your TW’s, infertility is discussed throughout the book.
