This is. My first dive into the Life Sucks Series by Elise Faber, and I can tell you I wasn’t lost at all. There are character relationships that you know you missed out on, but there are zero confusions about who anyone is and how things play out.
Maggie Augustin has found herself pregnant by a bad one-night stand. She is extremely sick and dealing with doing this on her own. Carter Jackson was smitten with Maggie the moment they met, but circumstances kept him from pursing her. He made changes to correct those issues, and has been slowly integrating himself into her life without her really realizing it.
I adore the way that Carter takes care of Maggie and how he does everything he can to show her that she is enough just as she is. She hasn’t had the best life and is reeling a little bit from the fact that she doesn’t have any good parental role models. Carter, however, has the best of the best, and is willing to share them with Maggie and a aby that isn’t’ his biologically, but he wants to be his in all ways possible.
This is an amazing friend group who are there for each other in ways that everyone needs. I can’t wait to go back and dive into the beginning of this series!
