Another fun romance from Talia Hibbert. It does have some serious plot points, but as usual Talia writes those with grace. I love the characters in this book, and I love that Talia writes multiple books in the same universe. Just like her popular Brown sisters series, the Ravenswood books are all connected.
This one did not disappoint with the widower and nanny trope. I like that Talia made sure to make a point that this was not an appropriate relationship and that wasn't just pushed to the side for the romance. Talia writes appropriate, consensual romances and I love that. It feels valid. Also her representation was great again. I love, loved the mental illness rep shown. Now I want a serotonin tattoo.

I love, love, love the way Talia Hibbert writes dialogue between her characters, whether that’s a romantic relationship, family dynamic or friendship - it’s all so good, and she never fails to make me smile! Huge bonus points for the cute kids in this story - they are absolutely adorable.
I really liked the way the uneven power dynamic between Nate and Hannah was handled over the course of the story (he hires her as a nanny to look after his kids), and I’m loving how this is the kind of series where past characters pop up (Hannah and Ruth’s sibling dynamic is amazing! Love them so much.) and new characters are introduced to be explored in later books. Can’t wait to try the final book in the trilogy!

Relationship with a work-based power difference, which is acknowledged/talked through at multiple stages as they go along.
