Description

THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

"A hilarious, tender, and altogether life-affirming gem of a book."—Emily Henry, bestselling author of Beach Read

A brilliant and touching romantic comedy about two polar opposites, one adorable dog, and living every day to its fullest.

When Vanessa Price quit her job to pursue her dream of traveling the globe, she wasn't expecting to gain millions of YouTube followers who shared her joy of seizing every moment. For her, living each day to its fullest isn't just a motto. Her mother and sister never saw the age of 30, and Vanessa doesn't want to take anything for granted.

But after her half sister suddenly leaves Vanessa in custody of her baby daughter, life goes from "daily adventure" to "next-level bad" (now with bonus baby vomit in hair). The last person Vanessa expects to show up offering help is the hot lawyer next door, Adrian Copeland. After all, she barely knows him. No one warned her that he was the Secret Baby Tamer or that she'd be spending a whole lot of time with him and his geriatric Chihuahua.

Now she's feeling things she's vowed not to feel. Because the only thing worse than falling for Adrian is finding a little hope for a future she may never see.

this book broke me in the best way

Abby Jimenez has done it again. Ugh this book was so good. So emotional, and so funny, and so heartfelt, and SO GOOD. This book had me laughing in the first chapter (on par for Abby’s books) and if I’m honest, crying through a lot of it too. Vanessa’s story and loss and Adrian’s anxiety and need for control broke me in honestly the best way. The narrators did an amazing job of bringing these characters to life. Zachary Webber delivered a line in the last 15 minutes of the book that immediately made me burst into tears and MY GOD. Just be prepared to have tissues in case you weep like me. I loved loved loved this book. Always 5 stars for Abby Jimenez.

Heart Wrenching

OMG.
So many emotions I had listening to this story.
I smiled, laughed, was very angry, I was in awe.

Through out this story I was so against Vanessa’s life choices, the ones regarding her family, her love, and her personal life.

As for the ending there was no other way to finish this love story.

Now that I have listened to it fully and calmed my emotions Vanessa’s desire to live her life that way made the most sense.
How do you react when your time is limited. I hope to never know that personally.

Zachary Webber was amazing as always. Christine Lakin is new to me an I thought she did a fine job.

So worth getting.
****Note: When you are listening to this story my advice is to grab your box if tissues. You will need them.

Good book

I liked author’s other stories better, but she does have a very sweet pen and it was joyful to listen to the beautiful voice of the female narrator.

Moving series with relatable characters and situations

I’ve journeyed through the three books in this series and thoroughly enjoyed every book. Highly recommend reading the series in order. This isn’t cookie cutter romance stories but heartwarming tales that will leave you longing for more.

Loved this Story

Abby is a talented author. This story was so well written that I ended up experiencing a plethora of emotions. The humour had me laughing so hard at times. This book faced real challenges and advocated counselling, talked about the discrimination of accessibility and what can be done. I am hooked on this author as I have read three of her books now and cannot wait for the next one. I really liked how the character handled the unknown of having a genetic familia illness. I strongly recommend this awesome read.
