Listened on Libby.
This story was truly beautiful and sweet. I loved everything. There’s nothing like experiencing and seeing black love but not just in the romantic way. Also through family, careers, friendships and more. You can tell both MCs loved what they did and the people in their lives. Jamison and Liv were so adorable and spicy. Anais caught that connection right away and that made me smile. After the death of someone that was your everything I can see how hard it is to love again in that way. I’m glad Kimberly told the story where Jamison in a sense felt guilty because letting go is hard. However, him having the support of his family and even wife after death pulled at my heart. His mother n law you can tell loves him like her own and wanted to see him happy again as well.
Liv definitely brings the upbeat spunk to any atmosphere she is in. Love the way her and those kids got along right away. You can tell those kids love their dad and mom but also have room in their hearts for more love. Once Jamison and Liv they took it there you can tell how right it felt between them. The love just jumps off the pages. Even with Liv finding her voice about the bedroom and Jamison listens to make her feel at home. All round a great book and can’t wait to get to know the rest of the family.
Highlights:
-“You’re my son and momma has always got you.”
-“Relax baby.” He spoke softly to her. “Let me have my way with you.”
-I love the moment he learned to do his daughter’s hair. He was such a good father to read. Those kids loved him.
