#LittensLoveRomance: Ch.9-10: things are getting pretty intimate between Shep and Eve. Do they both feel it? Eve definitely senses that things have changed between them. And she is not ready.
Eve‘s family reacted better than I thought they would. Two of her brothers at least seem nice. But they‘re a bit far away to give too much support. It was hard to find a meme that encapsulated their situation. Having such an age difference would be strange.

OriginalCyn620 Her family did react pretty well…I was wondering how that would go down but I‘m glad it was okay. Eve and Shep are both catching feelings and I‘m here for it! I can‘t wait to see how it comes to light and who makes the first move! 1h
LiseWorks It's getting really close for Shep to say something. I wish he would. Why do people wait? And Willa gets on my nerves. Her not liking the slippersnwasnreally annoying. 51m

#LittensLoveRomance: Ch.7-8: do we think Shep is just being supportive or does he have feelings for Eve? The two of them are definitely cozy. He‘s very sweet. And then…there‘s Ethan. This poor guy. His GF must be putting him through the wringer. For him to just now ask about paternity? That wasn‘t him - that has jealous other woman written all over it. Although it is a smart, practical question.⬇️

StayCurious But then he bought her slippers. He‘s kind of sweet too. Or he wants to be. 1d
peanutnine Ethan is so hot and cold, it's agonizing 😩 I hope Shep has feelings already because all of Eve's flutters for him are going to be confusing and she's gonna blame them on hormones and he needs to convince her they would be good together 1d

peanutnine Also explain why he's being cagey about that last year with his ex. I'm curious for that story to come out 1d
OriginalCyn620 The scene with Ethan definitely has the girlfriend‘s fingerprints all over it. We haven‘t been introduced to her yet, but it seems clear that she wears the pants in that relationship, when she can be bothered to be in the relationship. Can y‘all tell I don‘t like her? 🤣 1d
OriginalCyn620 I‘m thinking that Shep has had feelings for Eve for a while but maybe because of their dynamic and because of Willa, he‘s never acted on it. That could be a tricky situation! 1d
LiseWorks I don't know what to think about Ethan. It's like he is hoping it's not his. Or she will take him off the hook. The slippers made me melt. Mostly because it wasn't something for the baby but rather for her. If it wasn't for the Gf, he would be right there. As for Shep, he needs to share those feelings with her. 1d
CogsOfEncouragement Ohhhh, this difficult situation has me empathizing with all these characters. I‘ve been getting the vibe that Shep cares about Eve as a close family friend. I had a friend who was close with her brother, and in turn the brother was always really nice to me because of that. Never any other feelings about it. I‘m not sure Shep feels romantically towards Eve…YET. Rooting for it though. 24h
maich @StayCurious I feel the same about Ethan. I don't think he's 100% aware that he's going to be a father yet. I like Shep more than Ethan. He is so nice to her and I hope they will be together at the end. 11h

#LittensLoveRomance: Ch5-6: So…what do we think of Ethan? I get that he‘s out of his depth, but I do wish he could be a bit stronger for Eve. And for his GF in fact. I can‘t believe he didn‘t tell her yet. Was he hoping Eve wouldn‘t keep it? And then he‘d have nothing to tell??
I hate that her friendship with Willa has become strained. It hurts my heart. But I do love me some Shep. What an adorable guy.

Kshakal Ethan aggravates me… be a man for goodness sakes! 2d
peanutnine @Kshakal yes! He needs to step up a bit. Poor Eve with major decision fatigue already 😓 2d

LiseWorks I have a feeling that Ethan is unsure of what to do. It's almost like he wants Eve to make the decisions right now. So it's kind of awkward. 2d
OriginalCyn620 I get that Ethan was blindsided by the news, but I think you‘re exactly right Renee! I think too that he was hoping Eve wouldn‘t keep the baby. And yes, he needs to nut up already! 2d
maich @OriginalCyn620 I agree with you. He's hoping. Willa will have to accept the situation. The sooner the better for her. Eve needs her friend now. 2d
julesG Eve was blindsided too. But she didn't run around like a headless chicken. Ethan needs to accept the responsibility, make up his mind and talk to his girlfriend and Eve. 2d
Read4life My thoughts exactly, @julesG 2d
Roary47 Ethan needs to decide what he wants to do. I agree with all of you that he thought she would just terminate, and they don‘t know each other well enough to just talk it out. Not telling the gf though. That won‘t go over well. 18h

#LittensLoveRomance Ch.3-4: I used this meme but really, Shep was so great while Eve was crying all over him-What a great friend! He knew exactly what to say. Poor Eve: what a blow to find out the guy who knocked you up is in a serious and complicated relationship. I really felt for Eve, thinking she‘s not going to get a happy ending at all. I mean yes, she hardly knows Ethan, but she‘s not wrong in hoping there might have been something there⬇️

StayCurious Now she has boggy waters to navigate with Ethan and his girlfriend. I doubt she‘ll be very happy to learn about this. 3d
LiseWorks This sounds complicated. I am starting to think it's best to leave him out of it. These days, it's ok to be a single mom. 3d

OriginalCyn620 Yeah, I was wondering if Eve had any sort of expectations from the father of her baby since they clearly don‘t know each other well. And in the little glimpse we got of Ethan, he did seem like a good guy, but since he‘s back with his girlfriend, I‘m inclined to think he won‘t be there for Eve. But I could be wrong! And I really hope his whole story about being broken up with his gf wasn‘t a lie. And I know we‘re only 4 chapters in, but 👇🏻 3d
OriginalCyn620 I already want Eve and Shep to get together! Which could be complicated, but I still want it. 3d
Graciouswarriorprincess I felt for Eve but I agree with you @LiseWorks . It‘s ok to be a single mom, difficult but you make it work. And @OriginalCyn620 I would love to see Eve and Shep together. 🩷 3d
Roary47 I agree with @LiseWorks it‘s okay to be a single mom. She doesn‘t know Ethan she should keep her heart distant. I wish they would just get over the awkwardness and find out what each is feeling. Does Ethan want anything to do with his DNA contribution? If not sign him off. I‘m with @OriginalCyn620 I‘m shipping Eve and Shep! Ethan can figure hisself out. Side note: maybe the baby can be adopted by a certain friend if Eve is t ready? 3d
peanutnine @OriginalCyn620 my first thought re Ethan and his girlfriend: WE WERE ON A BREAK 😂 let's hope she's not upset by this new baby development 3d
peanutnine Although I agree with @Roary47 if he makes it too complicated, let him off the hook 3d
julieclair I thought Ethan‘s reaction when she first told him was interesting… kind of hard to know what he was thinking. He seems like a decent guy, but I can‘t see him being in this for the long haul. 3d
CogsOfEncouragement I thought it was good that Eve wasn‘t left to get all kinds of hopes up for two days. Very decent of Ethan to chase her down. He was in shock and continually interrupted so it isn‘t too unrealistic that he didn‘t explain his gf situation before that. And yes, Shep continues to be endearing. 3d
julesG @peanutnine 🤣🤣🤣 mine too 3d
maich Ethan first seems like a decent guy who really likes her. But then he has a girfriend. I didn't expect that. I hope Shep and Eve will be together. That he will help her with the baby. 3d

#LittensLoveRomance: Ch1-2: One night of fun really can change your life forever. Eve finds out that what was supposed to be a one night stand landed her pregnant - and while she‘s still trying to process everything, she tells her best friend and doesn‘t exactly get the best reaction. I mean - I get that Willa is entitled to her feelings but Eve is right - she did make the news completely about her, and that‘s not right.⬇️

StayCurious When Eve needs her best friend the most, Willa isn‘t there for her. Sad. Already this book has me feeling the feels. I‘m looking forward to more with Willa‘s brother though. He seems sweet. 4d
LiseWorks He does, I like hin already, I also was disappointed in her friend. 4d

OriginalCyn620 Yeah, I get that Willa was upset by the news considering she‘s having fertility issues, but she checked out when Eve needed her. Not her finest friend moment, but their friendship seems strong. And I already have a crush on Shep! 4d
peanutnine I'm so glad Eve didn't apologize for "springing the news" on Willa. Yes, it must be difficult for her with her fertility issues but it's not Eve's fault. I really hope they can talk things out soon instead of skirting around their feelings. I have a feeling that Shep is gonna step up for the emotional support she needs though, I love him already 4d
CogsOfEncouragement I‘ve had a few people in my life have difficulty conceiving. One adopted three children, and still couldn‘t bring herself to attend my baby shower. She sent a sweet gift though. I‘ve seen glimpses of their heartbreak month after month and feel for Willa. Shep is completely endearing. 4d
maich I understand Willa. I've tried for 5 years to get pregnant and all my friends already had childrens. Everyone asked us 'what are you waiting it's time for childrens'. My mother tormented me with questions like these. It was hard time. Finally I got pregnant with high risk pregnancy. And gave birth at 32 weeks to premature baby. 4d
julesG I loved Shep's reaction to the news. Willa has her reasons for not being overly enthusiastic. I get that the situation is tough on her, but Eve is her best friend, she could have mustered a tiny bit of cheer. 4d
Roary47 I also understand Willa like you @maich I tried for six years with similar comments. I also agree with your thoughts @CogsOfEncouragement I have a friend struggling who lost her last one when we were pregnant together. She stopped spending time with me after my oldest turned 1 because it was painful. We still talk and she supports me. I support her as best we can. I hope Willa will be able to work through her emotions to support Eve. 4d
Roary47 Shep is already my favorite! 🥰 4d
julieclair Shep seems like a great guy. Hopefully he will step in to support Eve if Willa just can‘t. 3d

This was such a feel good read with lovable characters and forward motion the whole way for MC, Eve. The few supporting characters are interesting on their own and I can imagine the author writing them into the MCs of their own stories.

AnnCrystal Beautifully book-staged 👏🤩👍. 2w

CogsOfEncouragement I can't get this one from the library, so I was going to pass. Then I looked up what else Bastone has written. I had forgotten her name! I absolutely adored Sweet Talk, Call Me Maybe, Seatmate, and Love at First Psych! I'll happily pay for this one to do a BR. Can't hardly wait. 2w
peanutnine So looking forward to this!! 🩷 2w
julieclair @CogsOfEncouragement That‘s a great endorsement! I haven‘t read any of her other books, but I suspect they will soon be added to my TBR, lol! 2w
