This book is a masterpiece. I truly believed that’s this book was crafted with the utmost care. Every sensible topic in this book was handled with compassion. The way the author dismantled every one of Abby’s misconceptions without shaming her for it because it was the way the was been raised. Every single character was flesh out and felt real. I felt like I was in that town with them and immediately was emotionally invested in all of them. This was the perfect found family trope , the way Joey took care of the kids, the way they had fun but also the way they showed us that it wasn’t sunshine and rainbows all the time , sometime the kids would be insufferable, sometime they would starve but that didn’t matter as long at the way together. The romance in this book was so well done . I feel like I could pinpoint the exact moment they feel in love , you got to see every facet of their relationship and watching it grow over time. And the banter and this book had me giggling , my feet were in the air 50% of this book. I truly had such a great time reading this book and I know when I finish the sequel , I will be talking about those characters for a long time. This book made me feel a lot of things I laughed , I was sad, I was annoyed.
