“It’s a messy yet relatable subject”
Wyatt and Biz may be expecting a baby soon enough, but their relationship with each other isn’t going as well. There is a major fracture between them, and the road trip may be their saving grace. However, the road trip turns out to be the most chaotic and messy trip ever. Wyatt and Biz find themselves returning home with their families as they both deal with their issues with each other.
I tend to find messy fiction so interesting. Why? It’s the most relatable to read because someone does go through this. No one's life is ever perfect in any situation. It’s a messy yet relatable subject. And the fracture between Wyatt and Biz is so chaotic that they both need to talk to each other. I know that everyone is going to say that they should split it out. However, they both have some insecurities that prevent them from communicating. It happens to the best of us, especially when you are making a big change, such as getting a baby from a surrogate.
Wyatt and Biz miscommunication may be frustrating at times throughout the book, but I understood both of their parts. Each of them is facing something unknown to them that brings out their insecurities in their relationship. It’s a bit flawed, but realistic if you think about it. Thankfully, Wyatt and Biz were able to find themselves again in their relationship. It was a bit rocky and chaotic, but it was worth it. It made them realize that they needed to believe in themselves and each other. And communicate a bit more with each other as well.
