I really liked this book. I believe it is the sequel of Until I Really Do, which is up on Wattpad, as is the third part of the series Until Forever. I enjoyed the whole trilogy, but I have to admit that my favourite book of the three was this one. You can read it without having read the first one, although I think you will enjoy the whole trilogy, so why cut out on the enjoyment? The story is about Gretchen, whose family has gone bankrupt and she has to find a job away from home. So she becomes the nanny of Elizabeth, an adorable baby, with an even more adorable father. His wife left him and he finds himself drawn to our lovely Gretchen. But we really have a lot of surprises both bad and good. I suggest it without a doupt!!
Ughhh this is gonna be hard. I have been a fan of Lily since her WattPad days and read Until You when it was still on there. But this did not live up to what I thought of it in my head :( She doesn't know how to tie it up at a nice point and every single time I think it's ending she kicks another plot point in. Gretchen is also EIGHTEEN. As an 18-year-old myself watching a 28-year-old man 'cast his eyes over her body' sounds disgusting. 2.5 stars :(
A phenomenally exceptional story of love, you won't want to miss.
An amazing and emotional journey for two people destined to fall in love with each other and one little baby that starts it all. You'll love the characters as they struggle through both adversity and insecurity to find their forever love for each other and their family.
This book had a very different review until about 2/3 of the way through. All of these characters are despicable with the moral backbone of a chocolate éclair. What is with unnecessary violence in historical fiction??
