If you're a fan of forbidden romance and secret relationships, this book will have you hooked. It blends emotional tension with the struggle of balancing personal dreams and unexpected love. Cole and Ginger's relationship is one to root for — built on years of history rather than the usual instalove. The depth of their connection makes their story feel authentic and truly heartwarming. And let's not forget Ginger’s bond with Cole’s daughter, Mable — their relationship adds such a sweet, meaningful layer to the plot.
Now, I’ll admit that friends-to-lovers isn’t usually my go-to trope, but this one totally won me over. The flashbacks to their younger years really help you understand the evolution of their relationship, and their playful baseball rivalry is just too cute. If you’re a fan of authors like Elsie Silver or Lucy Score, this one’s definitely worth picking up.
