Then together with our FMC, we learned to grieve and heal and try to make the best of things.
The author has a magical way with words, and having a novel within a novel takes the reader on a journey through the neuroses of being a writer and the power words have within and without the author's intention.
And somewhere along the way we also get to fall in love with older brother Tate-- a man we've been groomed to hate from the beginning and an OBGYN who made me regret for a split second choosing to have only female gynos in my life. But like all main characters in a Parker S Huntington novel, there's more to him than meets the eye, and like all of us, he's a little broken inside too.
I loved this novel. I loved Tate and Charlie. I still love Kellan. And I'm going to look closer at those I love and check in more. Just in case.

I love how grief is discussed perfectly from all perspectives, it was portrayed so well, I believe the first person perspective was well executed. This story was amazing in more ways than one. It’s a soft book for anyone who struggles with suicide, I feel like someone who reads this in a hard time like that may feel comforted.
The romance is age gap enemies to lovers and so raw, showing how complex the world can be in times of despair.
