Love the series

TDOSD, is the 4th book in The Lake Starlight series, but can be read as a standalone. As always I loved diving back into Lake Starlight. This one was a little bit more packed in my opinion. We have 2 best friends, a drunken one night stand, a surprise pregnancy, and a co parenting situation. They live next door to each other, they are scared to ruin their friendship so they hid their feelings. We watch then go on this roller coaster of emotions and realizations. I love how Palmer is introduced to the family cabin. (It’s holds all the magic). Piper Rayne did an fabulous job of writing a story within a story. Palmer is a romance writer and is currently trying to make a deadline. When their lives start to change and other people are thrown in the mix, ee see them start to realize that they are more than just friends. This slow burn, is slightly angsty, and has it moments of comedic relief (the retirement home book club meeting) was hilarious but all and all full of banter. Once these two figured it out it was full steam ahead. Little Adley was just the cutest. I loved seeing some of the previous characters continued through out this storyline. Also, kudos to Piper Rayne for writing a heroine who has cochlear implants. Great read.

If you love any of the following tropes I would highly recommend you read this book: second chance, friends to lovers, single parents, small town, big family. I love Lake Starlight, I always love visiting and hate it when the visit comes to an end!! Piper Rayne I hope we don’t have to wait too long before we get to return

I love a good friends to lovers story and this was one of my favorites. We actually jump into the aftermath of these two becoming lovers, since daughter Adley is 3 years old. While she may be the result of too much alcohol, mom and dad Palmer and Hudson couldn't love her more. They live next door to each other and he followed Palmer back to her hometown in Alaska to share the raising of this sassy and spunky cherub. Staying friends has been easy, until recently. Whether it's the woman that Hudson is dating or the possiblitilty of Palmer hopping back into the dating scene herself for the jealousy and hurt feelings, I'll let the readers find out the reasons. But these two absolutely have more than friendly feelings for each other, and always have. It's the journey, slow as it may be, towards etting there that is the story and the treat. Longtime fans of this series and the earlier Bailey family books (the OGs, if you will, including Palmer's parents) will love the on-page cameos and mentions of beloved characters. Although if you'd new to Starlight, AK, you will still be able to fully enjoy Palmer and Hudson's journey towards their HEA. I anxiously await the "next gen" Bailey cousin to be fall in love.
