I actually feel awful that I'm DNFing this, I had high hopes from the description but I couldn't stand the FMC. She was beyond annoying, I couldn't handle it anymore.
I've been sitting on this for 2 days now, unsure if I want to DNF, but I just dreaded having to read more.
Honestly, the moment that sealed it for me was when Allegra YELLED at Brady for buying and reading a pregnancy book. LIKE ARE YOU SERIOUS???? It's his child too, and he’s trying to learn more. Isn’t that showing initiative?

“Are you reading a pregnancy book?” I practically shouted. He smiled and actually had the gall to look pleased with himself. “I am. It’s—” “How dare you!” Seething, I stormed from my chair and picked it up, swinging it in the air. “How could you read this? I can’t believe you even bought it!”
...
“I’m the one who’s pregnant.” I didn’t like repeating myself, but it obviously needed repeating because he was missing the point. “Not you!” I shook my head, unbelieving I’d walked in here to find this. “You think I’m going to be a crappy mom. That I won’t do this right? That I’ll mess up before the kid is even baked? Ohmigod, I can’t believe this!” I was spiraling. I knew I was. But, come on, first Brady wanted to be part of every little thing and now this?
I wanted to slap her. It was such an unwarranted reaction, and she was being such an asshole.
“All right, well, I was just trying to explain that my intention was to get more information because I want to be the best partner I can be in all of this.”
Partner? What was Brady not understanding? Now I got why people tried not to get knocked up. Among the myriad of reasons was this one: the man got mixed up with what was happening. “That’s just it, though. You’re not my partner.”
“When it comes to this baby, I am.”
LIKE HE IS SO FUCKING SWEET AND WANTS TO BE A PART OF THE BABY'S LIFE!! How is that a bad thing?!
ughhh
Overall, despite having high hopes for this when I signed up for the ARC, this book clearly wasn't for me.

I’m sooo scared about reading the book 3 ARC I have because I don’t know if I’ll be able to get through it, after reading book 1 and not liking it😭(I read book 1 right after getting this ARC because I love immersing myself in a series’ world—even if it’s a standalone, but I was really disappointed when book 1 wasn’t for me.)
Thank you for the ARC, Dani Ryan♡
