The book seesawed too much for me. I just didn’t think parts were realistic. And I thought the grandmother character was off putting after a while. We do get a HEA though.

Full Review:

I honestly that this book just didn't work truly in the end. We follow 33 year old Autumn who is happily living with her long running partner of 18 years, Marc. Autumn and Marc have a 18 year old daughter named Chloe and though they got together very young (when Autumn became pregnant at 15) they see a light at the end of the tunnel with Autumn's new promotion at work which means they can finally find a place to buy. Things go south though when Marc disappears and leaves a note which results in Autumn and Chloe having to move in with Autumn's mother and realize that the best laid plans of mice and mice often go awry.

I don't know. The romance that Autumn wanted didn't feel organic. Just shoehorned in. And it felt like the last thing she cared about and it just didn't work since there were so many other bigger issues going on. I also thought there was a big hole with regards to Marc. There's no final resolution there in the epilogue. I think there should have been something mentioned.

I will say that MacLeod seems to love 18 months later epilogues that works for me though. I always call BS when there's a HEA after like 2 months.
