What makes it worse is that Caleb is abusive and shows no more interest in the baby than as its potential to be an anchor to keep Iris trapped into a relationship with him that will eventually lead to marriage. It isn't fair to bring a child into this world that you're not sure you want to care for. #Sorrynotsorry to get political here, but that is exactly why pro-choice options should exist. The heroine doesn't, even for a moment, entertain "other options," even though she's not sure she wants to be a mother. Which she pushes back against initially, even lining up her dream job: until she finds out *oh no* that despite using protection, she's pregnant. Like August, Caleb is a professional basketball player, but unlike August, he's controlling as all get-out and expects Iris to put all her dreams on hold for him. August and Iris meet at a bar and have an instant connection but Iris is already in a relationship with a guy named Caleb. It actually reminds me a lot of Colleen Hoover's TOO LATE. I downloaded this while it was a Kindle freebie because my friends were going nuts over it, and I figured anything with that many five star ratings across the board had to be good.
