I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Isaac and Colton were both written so well. Their story was captivating and had me invested from start to finish. Their prior history was heavy but written with care, and seeing them navigate the trajectory of their relationship was addicting. Check triggers if you need, but overall a great read.

I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily. ]]>

A Cornish Winter's Kiss by Jo Bartlett
"I stayed up until 1am because I had to finish this book. I absolutely fell in love with Emily and Jude. The writing was so good I was feeling every emotion. I rarely cry while reading a book, but this one had me crying multiple times. I hope you enjoy this as much as I did. I will immediately be adding more Jo Bartlett books to my TBR. Thank you Boldwood Books and Netgalley for the ARC."

3.5 ⭐️

Ok so I enjoyed the commentary on modern motherhood that this book provided. I remeber vividly the feeling of losing myself entirely after having my child and feeling like I’d never figure out who the heck I was outside of being a mom. I think I would have enjoyed this story more had it been shorter. There were many parts I felt were just repetitive and a bit boring. Also, justice for the cat because ummm what? ]]>

This book was this year’s pick for the One School One Book initiative at my kiddo’s school. We read it together as a family and it was a cute and relatable story. Emma is faced with the age old challenge of trying to figure out making new friends and if that means you should change yourself to fit in or be yourself and find those who appreciate you for you. Both myself and my 2nd grader enjoyed the book. ]]>
