I really enjoyed the relationship between Theo and Winter. Theo is such a sweetheart—completely swoon-worthy—and I loved how layered and complex Winter was. She had so much to work through, and it was heartwarming to see Theo spend the entire book ensuring she knew she deserved love. Their dynamic was incredibly sweet.

I also appreciated the relationship Winter had with her daughter and how Theo immediately stepped into his role as a dedicated, hands-on dad. Watching the three of them slowly come together as a family was such a beautiful journey.

That said, when the “I love you” moment came, it felt a bit abrupt, almost like it came out of nowhere. I wish there had been more scenes of the main characters getting to know each other on a deeper level.
