My Review:

Changing Tides is a book from a series I have been curious about as I have been seeing it around Instagram quite a bit. And so I decided to grab up the first book. I am honestly confused by this book lol I am not sure if others felt the same way after reading it, but it honestly was the strangest secret baby romance I have ever read. I am not sure what the author was aiming to do or how she wanted to write this one, but it felt so disjointed at times. We hardly see mention of it being a secret baby until 85% lol Very rarely does the reveal of it actually take this long. And even though as a reader you know its a secret baby but there is no inner monologue of it or any build up of why the heroine kept it a secret. In fact I am still baffled why she didn't tell him. And another issue of this is she blamed him even though he had no clue. She just wasn't willing to take accountability for her actions or even be patient with the hero when he was upset about it. Apparently he was just supposed to get over it and be fine with her deceiving him. And while some aspects I enjoyed like seeing them reconnect with these cute little dates or seeing him bond with his daughter, I just struggled with this one because it didn't make sense the important things. And I wanted to see more emotional intimacy being built between them. There was a bit too much spice in this book and not enough relationship building being implemented within the story.

I am not sure if this is a fluke from the author, I will give another book of hers a try because I don't like to give up too quickly with an author, but I wasn't too impressed with this one here as it needed some editing and polish on it overall.
