This was a very good book. It's a well written and edited book. The characters are lifelike. I liked that the characters were every day people. Folks that you could live next door to or see in a store and not someone who is famous or ultra wealthy. The situation the characters were in was believable. Their baggage was realistic. The book falls short for me because there is no resolution of the baggage that they had. No discussion on how they moved on from their past. It's just ignored. In the real world would this would cause problems in their lives , especially her unresolved family issues . If they really want the HEA she has to talk about her parents and the way she was reared. Then they need to discuss how they would parent any future children. In my opinion the book needs more humor. All in all it's a very good book.
