A multicultural new adult romantic comedy from best-selling author J.J. McAvoy.

Eli Davenport thinks he's found the perfect woman to be his wife. She's a doctor, like he is. She's brilliant, like he is. And she's wealthy, like he is.

Guinevere "Gwen" Poe thinks her fiancé is the perfect man. He's handsome, successful and he was her first....

But when Eli's bride runs off with Gwen's fiancé on his wedding day, they are left to pick up the broken pieces of each other....

Despite or in spite my title I highly recommend this book. I think the ending was a bit of a stretch. That big scene was too much to believe in a true HEA. However, the book was funny, sexy, and a tear jerker at times. Definitely a good listen to

Sugarbaby Beautiful

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

She came back I didn't like the baby part I didn't like the person that died in the book very sad very moving though show that the doctors can do both so much sorry for the all of his lost very heartbreaking. If there's a two I hope at some kind of twist and changes the baby part.

A beautiful love story with well developed characters who have complicated pasts. Modern love story - I didn’t think I would enjoy it but I did very much.

Great Story

Every time I read this story it gets better. There’s part of a poem I think that says if you love something set it free, if it comes back it’s yours. If it doesn’t it never was. Juvenile? Maybe, but fitting in this case. Eli and Gwen were searching and could have ended up settling for lives with partners that would not have been as great as the life they have together, with the love they share. In the end, Eli learns Gwen’s the love of his life. Gwen sets out on a journey that can only lead one place, to Eli. Good read. Worth a sequel!
JJ’s flair for romance is unmatched.

This book was so good with high highs and so sad part to and was so well written it made me sigh deep with the love story Great read

Sooooo Goood

This is a story based on a theme seen often before. A couple thrown together over a mutual heartache, then the enemies to lovers theme takes over, followed by several hurdles they overcame toward their own ending.

However J. J. McAvoy has a writing style that lifts the story from normal to extraordinary. This is not just a tale, with all of the other Romance / steamy sex themes, but actual thought provoking prose that gives you “ all the feels”.

The narration was excellent which just makes it an even better experience well worth a credit.
