I can't do books with cheating. Both main characters are being completely unfair to their current partners, the whole premise makes me sick.

I am intrigued to see what happens next but didn't *love* this one. The premise is good, and what will happen is not easily predictable - but I thought it dragged on a bit long, and the other relationships/emotional cheating/miscommunication around this was tedious.

Is was absolutely thrilled to start this book because Julia (entirelybonkerz) had been talking about it nonstop. But also the premise of someone being in a relationship just because and settling for less than the biggest most incredible type of love, gets me anxious.

The anxiety flew away pretty easily the moment Nick steps in that hospital room.

Won’t say anything else. Just that you should read this. That this is one of the most lovely and funny reads I’ve had in a long time (and I have fun Alamogordo with anything, but this was just EXTRA). That this is so so so so romantic… so much. SO MUCH!!!

Beauty at its best

"I don’t know how many lives I’ve lived with him, but it feels a little unfair that I can’t live this one with him too."

Beautiful emotion and storytelling. S wordsmith with pure integrity and authenticity.
