Straight up like it from the first time i read it. It’s a typical Golden retrievers and Doberman kind of relationship. It’s heartwarming and healing, the pace is not that slow and is really enjoyable

This was the sweet love story of two more mature leads. I liked it enough to finish quite quickly, however there were some things that really annoyed me.
The relationship takes forever to develop. The ML was in a long term, 15 years, relationship with someone else at the start of the book. Mind you that relationship seemed quite toxic and frankly was not good for him. When they finally break-up everyone makes such a big deal of him ending a relationship that was so long. Even the MC refuses to pursue him or even believe that the relationship was really over for the longest time simply because of how many years were invested into it. I find that to be quite ridiculous, doesn't matter how long you invest in a relationship if the other person becomes selfish and toxic then good job to you for getting out of there.
Once we move away from that a bit and the ML and MC start dating, the other man just decides to come back a couple of times to try and get the ML back. But he comes back like 6 months later, then a year or more later. It makes no sense for you to expect someone to be waiting for you after all that time. Just seemed unrealistic. But even then those encounters were very unsatisfactory, there was opportunity for some well deserved face slapping, but the author never acted up on that.
The last thing I didn't like was how it ended. The "problem" that was thrown in at the end. It seemed to come out of nowhere and just made a sweet story sad. I know the author was going for a "we'll be together through better and worse", but as a reader it just felt like needless melodrama.
All in all I finished this quite quickly and I wanted to know what happens next, so definitively worth a read.

It’s always nice to see 2 grown adults act like adults. Both characters were so mature it’s amazing to see so much emotional maturity in a book. Their interactions were so realistic I loved it 😫
