This book was sooo good and I think I'm a little bit too in love with the Mitchell brothers now! 😍 Bowen, being the supportive, goofy brother that he is, with his cereal, his funny jokes and his big heart (- who totally deserves his own book btw). 🥣🥰 And single dad Kade, for whom his sweet son Elijah always comes first. 🧑🧒🥰 Both are very passionate firefighters, who love their job. 🚒 After an accident Kade comes back to the small town he grew up in and he and Elijah move in with Bowen. On Elijah's first day at his new school, Kade meets his teacher Mr. Bell ... Spencer. Spencer, who he went to high school with and who he always looked at back then, not thinking about what this could mean … But Spencer has a slightly different memory of that time. He got bullied quite a lot from Kade's friends. Since Kade was never actively involved, Spencer hoped he would stop them one day. The big crush he had on Kade wasn't helping either. Once talking about everything and clearing up their misunderstandings, Kade and Spencer become closer and closer. Aaand sweeter and sweeter. 💜 The way they looked after each other and cheered each other up ... so heartwarming and beautiful. 🥰 Uf, and they are HOT together!! Hallelujah! 🔥 The story also touches some heavy topics like alcoholism, parental negligence, postpartum depression, etc. But they were all handled with great sensitivity and never overpowered the actual plot. Its a wonderful story full of struggles, growth, family love and heart! And I loved every second of it!! 🥰🙌 Highly recommend!!
I can't really grasp what this book was like. Overall, it's a cute single dad x son's teacher romance who happen to have some kind of history from their highschool days. The kid was super cute and really elevated the story. But I didn't get a good grasp of the MCs - yes, one is a firefighter and that brings some complications and the family background is not the easiest, and the other one is a closeted-but-not-really gay teacher in a small town, but that's about it. I'm one of those people who stop reading mid chapter and I usually don't struggle to get back in, but here I really did - like I had to think about which name was which profession/the single dad because they weren't that distinct. And there was a lot of tell don't show instead of show don't tell, which might also be a reason why I didn't get a feel for the characters. There was a lot of drama that just didn't feel dramatic because we were just told about it. This all sounds overly critical, it's still a solid book and I had a good time reading it, but the spark was missing for me. And: It's 2025, why do authors STILL support zoos and aquariums? I really don't get that, and if you don't see the problem with this kind of animal cruelty, there are great resources to educate yourselves about those institutions out there - for all my German speaking friends, try Robert Marc Lehmann!
