It’s a cute rom-com. It’s a quick read. But the characters in this book … the FMC is third date Colleen. She receives this nickname from her brothers best friend and also love interest because every time someone goes on a third date with her, they end up in the emergency room. But when she and Moore (said brothers best friend and MMC) have a near death experience they both decide to come clean about their feelings for each other. This gets complicated by her reputation, his reputation as being twice divorced, and the fact that he is trying to convince his 15 year old to come live with him rather than stay with his manipulative and quite frankly evil mother. So what’s the problem? Well, Moore is weak. He continues to be defined by what he thinks others think even at her expense. I get the explanation for that. But really a conversation as an adult with his parents could have solved A LOT of that. Plus you can’t just use the excuse they did to be crap parents. But really it’s how they all treat Colleen. Her brother is a world class jerk who has decided that she is cursed and goes around stomping and yelling about how she can’t date Moore basically because it might be inconvenient for him if they break up. He is incredibly hurtful and gets away with it for the most part. Colleen was supposed to be this strong woman but I kept waiting for her to actually set boundaries with someone - anyone. Yelling at them is not boundary setting. She should have made clear it was not acceptable for her brother and her friend later boyfriend to treat her that way. I did love Moore as a father though even if I don’t agree with all of his choices. I did understand them.
