Out on a Limb
Hannah Bonam-Young
★★★★★Synopsis
Winnifred “Win” McNulty has always been wildly independent and not one to be coddled for her limb difference. Win has spent most of her life trying to prove that she can do it all on her own. With some minor adjustments, she’s done just fine. Hooking up at a costume party with the incredibly charming Bo changes everything. Win finds herself pregnant—and decides to keep the baby. While Bo is surprisingly elated to step up to the plate, Win is unsure of whether she can handle this new challenge. Together, Win and Bo decide to get to know one another as friends and nothing more while they embark on this parenting journey together. But, as they both should know by now, life rarely goes according to plan.
The protagonists
WIN MCNULTY
THE INDEPENDENT ONE
Born with a limb difference, she spent her life proving she doesn't need anyone's help. Until Bo arrives, and letting go a little starts to feel more like healing than losing.
BO
THE ONE WHO SHOWED UP UNINVITED
Charming, patient, and ready to stay from the very first moment. Bo doesn't force anything — he's just there, steady, until Win decides letting him in is worth it.
My review
This book is pure tenderness, no drama, just two people who meet under certain circumstances and slowly fall in love while healing together. I read the whole thing with a smile on my face. It goes straight into my all-time favorites and my safe places. My heart couldn't be happier.
