What a good book! You don't see many romance/women's fiction titles that take on subjects like this so unflinchingly, but maybe more should. I liked how Ms. Talley was able to entertain and educate me at the same time. I learned a lot about having a child with Down Syndrome, such as the expected delay in milestones, and also the incredible strides that people can make with the help of loving family members and dedicated medical professionals. Ethan and Lauren were an easy couple to root for, and I completely understood Lauren's "once bitten, twice shy" approach after the way her husband treated her. This is not a conventional romance where a man sweeps a woman off her feet.I think that anybody who gives this book a chance will enjoy it, and will find that it sticks with you longer than a typical romance.
