When Stephanie and Jamie meet they have an instant connection but they are both in relationships. Even so they arrange to meet up again regularly at the same weekend each year for over a decade. Marriage, children, lies, tears and heartache unfold right to the end. Even though I don't agree with infidelity in marriage I really enjoyed how the story unfolded and was routing for them to be together.

The cheating trope has to be one of my least favourite in the romance genre so I really should've done my research pre reading this however I had come to enjoy the relationship between Jamie and Stephanie and was absolutely not ready for that gut punch of an ending. I will now be going to hide with snacks and my feelings.

Allthough there is some adultery involved, the love story is strong as well.

I'm completely shattered by the ending. The entire story was angst and painful. But it taught me a lot of things. That if it's meant to be it'll be whether we like it or not. And to make your own happiness and never settle for less than being happy. I really really wish it had a different ending because Stephanie deserved to be happy and loved and wanted.
