Their romance could've used more development.

The concept was sweet, with the unborn baby daughter looking out for her father and helping him find peace. The romance between Mark and Isabella was a bit odd though. Honestly, most of it doesn't seem all that romantic, more like two friends just spending time together. When they ran through the rain holding hands, it took me off guard. Then, at the end of the book they're in love? Isabella is talking about how Mark is her one true love. There didn't seem to be the right build up to that. I would've really liked it if the romance was developed a bit better. That being said, I did enjoy listening to the book. It was a cute story. Nicole Colbrun did a good job with her narration. Her voice is soft and it seemed to work with the book. She did well at creating male voices.
