REVIEW - April May Fall (Mommy Wars #3) by Christina Hovland


 The Book

Release Date: 26 October 2021

Goodreads Link

The hilarious new stand-alone romantic comedy perfect for any mom who’s tried to have it all.

“I don’t think I have laughed out loud so much at a book while at the same time - felt so emotionally connected to the characters.” -This Book, That Life

April Davis totally has her life in order. Ha! Not really. Yes, she’s the Calm Mom—a social influencer with a reputation for showing moms how to stay calm and collected through yoga—but behind the scenes, she’s barely holding it all together. Raising tiny humans alone is exhausting, but that’s just the chewed-up cherry on the melted sundae of her life. Her kids aren’t behaving, her husband left her for his skydiving instructor, and her top knot proves she hasn’t showered in days.

Then a live video of the “always calm” April goes viral...and she’s most definitely not. Enter Jack Gibson, April’s contact at the media conglomerate that has purchased April’s brand. The too-sexy-for-his-own-good Jack will help clean up April’s viral mess, and even work with her to expand her influence, but toddler tea parties and a dog with a penchant for peeing on his shoes were definitely not part of the deal.

Now April’s calm has jumped ship quicker than her kids running from their vegetables. Not to mention, the sparks flying between her and Jack have her completely out of her depth. Forget finding her calm—April’s going to need a boatload of margaritas just to find her way back to herself again.

My Review   5 STARS

**My thanks to NetGalley and Entangled Publishing LLC for providing me with a free copy for an honest review**

This is the third book in the series and it does not disappoint and we even get to see a little of some of the other characters in the other books too.

April is a single mother whose husband left her after a mid life crisis and she is still picking up the pieces while looking after her three kids, the house and her career.

As a MyTube creator, she has a platform where she teaches calm mummies and yoga, however on a live episode, things take a wrong turn.  Her friend Rachels brother is her manager and he ends up flying in to do damage control and things soon heat up with the chemistry between them.

Jack has never really been in a relationship and at first things happen slowly, until he finds that actually he is in love with April, but she only sees him as temporary.  It is his job to fix things and he does this very well with all his clients and knows that April just needs her confidence back, and he certainly manages to let her find it again.

I really enjoyed this book and cannot wait to see how the last book in the series ends.
