Amber Fitzpatrick is about to hit thirty and has achieved none of the things she hoped to have done by now. Her dreams of owning her own business seem out of reach. Her boyfriend has just dumped her and now her biological clock is clanging in her head.
But maybe Amber doesn’t need a man for the next stage of her life?
Maybe as an independent woman she can have a baby all by herself?There’s only one problem. Handsome but excruciatingly annoying best friend Tyler Williams.
Tyler thinks Amber’s motherhood plans are plain crazy! She just needs to wait for Mr. Right to come along…and maybe he’s closer than she thinks?But with Amber hellbent on doing it alone, Tyler sets out to prove to her that being her best friend could also come with excellent benefits…if only she's brave enough to take the chance.
Now I have to say, I do love a slow burn, but sometimes they get frustrating. You spend ages waiting for the couple to be together because you know they will and then you don’t see anything of them. Here this is a slow burn with a difference, both of them want the best for each other. They know they are meant to be but so much gets in the way.
I was here for ALL of it!! I loved the sizzle, the fire and the spark. Tyler and Cherry aka Amber are perfect together!!! To me, this was one of the more realistic friends-to-lovers tropes. I didn’t think anything felt forced, it all flowed nicely and the narrator was spot on!
Amber turns 30 and wants a baby, but the man in her life is not so reliable. so through a cup-a-sperm, it is! But things change, obviously. She has another dream to own her Nan’s old property, but Brad is festering – this is the unreliable ex!
I loved the writing and I was hooked straight away, I wanted to know what made this book different from all the rest, and I got my answer. Realism. Authentic characters and a whole lot of charm! This book was so much fun and left a smile on my face at the end!
Until the next time xxx
