While I found the characters interesting and the plot itself really sweet. . . it felt to me like there was too much left unexplored especially in regards to the emotional baggage both being carried (double for the MMC given he is a father). And with how short the story is we barely get an HEA and what it needed desperately to make it a solid HEA was an epilogue about them instead of a flashback that told us something we(the reader) already had been told.

I also struggled a bit with the narrator whose voice for the MMC felt odd at times and felt too upbeat during certain solemn scenes.

Beyond that it wasn't an unenjoyable listen, just not as satisfying as I thought it'd be given how much I enjoyed the premise and characters.
