Second chance • Soulmates •
I’d initially tabled this book in “Shelve for Later or possible DNF” but after reading “This Summer Will be Different” and loving it I decided to try picking this one up again but with audiobook this time & I’m happy I did. I think listening to the audio added to my overall enjoyment especially during parts that were a bit flat.
Whilst I didn’t feel the same whimsical summer / small town connection as I did with Carley Fortune’s other two books there were elements I enjoyed.
I couldn’t really connect with the MC’s but that’s ok. I also felt the reasoning was overly worked up for why he didn’t show up. I expected something a little more than what had truly transpired.

epilogue! The story got better and better for me as it went on, and the epilogue brought everything together in such a poignant, beautiful way. This book touched on so many more topics than I had anticipated, and I really enjoyed how Carley Fortune featured reflections on familial and platonic love in addition to the main romantic love story. Looking forward to reading more from this author!
