I have to say this is one of my favorite too love this fireman hundred percent, and her to. I definitely recommend this book, sweet, loving and steamy.
Cute story loved the characters and the small town. Gigi is a hoot. Can’t wait to read the next in the series.
Madi and Cole story was cute as they were both coming from the same type of situation. The fight Cole had with himself was one that took the entire town to make him see he was "more than," and anyone else would have reacted the same. His love for his children and self was awe-inspiring. His like and affection for Madi was, too.
This book was good, a little wordy, but the characters were interesting and fun. It’s was a good, fun read.
- Small Town - Single Dad - Age Gap - Town Hero / Hot Firefighter dude - City Girl / Country Boy - Autumn vibes - Slight Divorce Drama - No OW/OM - Hallmark movie feels 💛 - Matchmaker Grandma 👵 What can I say! I love a cheesy romcom. This book was so sweet and heartwarming. I loved the small town setting. I loved the main and side characters. The pace of the story. I felt like some time it was a bit slow for me, at least in some instances, but overall it was a sweet story. Cole is dealing with his recent divorce and how it is affecting his kids. Madi just got out of a long relationship. The least thing in their minds right now is a new relationship right now, but sometimes what you need appears out of nowhere when you least expect it and can change your life forever. 💛 I loved these 2. Got frustrated at times, not gonna lie. But ultimately they made the right choices and made me happy again hahaha 😂 I highly recommend you to read this book. 🥰
This was such a cute story! I loved getting their backstory and seeing them each get a chance at happiness after failed relationships.
