Despite or in spite my title I highly recommend this book. I think the ending was a bit of a stretch. That big scene was too much to believe in a true HEA. However, the book was funny, sexy, and a tear jerker at times. Definitely a good listen to

Sugarbaby Beautiful

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

She came back I didn't like the baby part I didn't like the person that died in the book very sad very moving though show that the doctors can do both so much sorry for the all of his lost very heartbreaking. If there's a two I hope at some kind of twist and changes the baby part.

Not bad

A beautiful love story with well developed characters who have complicated pasts. Modern love story - I didn’t think I would enjoy it but I did very much.

Great Story

Every time I read this story it gets better. There’s part of a poem I think that says if you love something set it free, if it comes back it’s yours. If it doesn’t it never was. Juvenile? Maybe, but fitting in this case. Eli and Gwen were searching and could have ended up settling for lives with partners that would not have been as great as the life they have together, with the love they share. In the end, Eli learns Gwen’s the love of his life. Gwen sets out on a journey that can only lead one place, to Eli. Good read. Worth a sequel!
JJ’s flair for romance is unmatched.
