Tho I do like kmiyc amongst the author's novels (within her omegaverse novels) I won't deny this was a bit dragged and kinda rushed(?) ending imo, I only let it slide since this was literally from 2018 like kml being from 2017. Imo kmiyc could've been a bit better if Chase and Josh's first meeting was also addressed, and I also question why the side stories is called "side story" when it's literally a continuation of the main story. When I mean "just a continuation" I meant it's not even a time skip... Or maybe that's just me, but that's just how I feel since there are other plot points that could've been added other than what we had (Ik there's gonna be a new side story for them)... But again as I said, this was published in 2018, imo it's the characters personality(?) (especially the couple's dynamics) and art is what made many people like this even tho the plot is very simple. Same opinion I have with her ongoing one, Deflower Me, plot wise it's not that 'great' imo, but the characters makes you want to read them, or not it depends, I like Bliss' a lot and I respect Cassian for having balls of steel against THE Ashley Miller lololol

"Joshua should've just said that Pete is their son it's that simple"
That's the thing, it's not that simple, Joshua always considered their relationship was only a fling like his previous relationships until he realized later on that he cared for Chase more than he thought. He's literally struggling to say "I love you" when he had said them casually in the past, this was the first relationship that he was very serious about. He already said previously that it was a bit too late to tell about Pete to Chase, meaning his reluctant about the topic and how would Chase react especially it's been years. I need y'all to remember Chase's personality, yes he quite change now, but Josh's concerns are valid, and it's only this time he's sure that he'll be honest with Chase. Even in the next chaps he's still having a hard time to tell Chase the truth because again, he's scared of how will Chase react. This story happened just in the span of months, not even a year yet mind you.
