My Review

The story begins with Holly heavily pregnant, struggling with her life choices, including her job and her complex emotional connections with two men, both of whom have their merits and flaws. As she spirals into keeping secrets from them, her situation becomes overwhelming due to her pregnancy.

This installment delves deeper into the emotional aspects of Holly’s life, taking a more serious approach than before. The story’s ending and the conversations between the main characters significantly influenced the reader’s overall enjoyment. The series offers continuous storytelling and doesn’t conclude Holly’s personal growth in any single book. Witnessing her gradual journey of confronting life’s challenges is gratifying. While some books in the series may resonate more with readers than others, it’s highly recommended for those who prefer following a single lead character with minimal distractions as she learns and evolves.The author’s writing is straightforward and concise, making each book a quick and accessible read, even when dealing with emotional ups and downs.
