ABOUT THE BOOK
Nearly forty, Anna has a successful career, a long-term relationship, and a carefully maintained sense of independence. But as time begins to run out, one question becomes impossible to ignore. What if she’s left it too late for the one thing she truly wants—a baby?
Divorced journalist Rob keeps his life free from complications. But when he runs into Anna at a friend’s wedding, he’s caught off guard. The girl he remembers is gone, replaced by a woman who is impossible to ignore.
When Anna makes him an offer, it’s one he can’t quite believe. No strings. No expectations. Just one simple arrangement.
It should be straightforward.
But the closer they become, the harder it is to stay detached. What begins as a practical plan deepens into something far more tender and much more dangerous.
If Anna allows herself to hope, she could lose not only her dream of motherhood, but the one man who has begun to feel like home.
Now Rob has a choice. Walk away…or risk everything for the woman he was not supposed to fall for.
Because some arrangements were never meant to stay temporary.
MY REVIEW
Book 2 of the Millingham Series is a moving story that tackles challenging subjects while remaining about love, friendship, and the feelings that tie us all together. We get to revisit the characters from the first book, like catching up with good friends. I particularly enjoyed learning more about Anna and Rob. Two opposites are brought together to explore a new path that will change their lives forever.
Rob, a famous journalist, was not my favorite person in book one, but his story goes deeper in Me Too, and his life is revealed as a lonely existence with one-night stands and yearning for something more. Enter Anna, a successful entrepreneur and a little standoffish, who is also looking for more in her life and believes Rob can give it to her on her own terms. But is it enough?
I appreciate how Ms. Light handled the more sensitive topics with care. It felt genuine and respectful, never forcing the issues but rather allowing them to flow naturally with the narrative. It’s not easy to write about complex emotions and experiences, but this book does it beautifully.
If you’re in the mood for something that blends deep emotional insight with relatable characters, definitely check out this series by reading it in order. I can’t wait to read the next book.
Thank you to Ms. Light for giving me the opportunity to read this book with no expectation of a positive review.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Katharine Light was born in Glasgow and lived there until her family moved to Manchester when she was ten. While in her teens, she began writing stories for her younger sister Emma. These mostly centred around a naïve heroine and a 1980s pop star (some would say the hero was modelled on John Taylor of Duran Duran).
She did a degree in psychology at University College London, and after a year travelling, worked in corporate film production for several years, before taking a break to raise her children.
For many years she wrote mainly during the holidays, around her busy work for a local church.
Her first novel Like Me, published in 2023, was shortlisted for The Selfies Book Awards 2024. Her short story My arms are empty which is based on an episode from her second novel Me Too recently won the City University competition City Writes.
She is a director of the Romantic Novelists’ Association, with responsibility for organising their conferences, gatherings and awards ceremonies.
Katharine lives in London with her husband and quite often at least one of their adult children. She loves singing, walking, painting, looking at art, and going to the theatre.
