I spend a lot of time trying to guess the ending of books, and this one took me by complete surprise! I loved every bit of it, from the stories of Scarlett’s life in the past to the stories of Georgia’s in the present. Sooo good!

A well written romance with some unexpected twists. The love between Scarlett and Jameson and Georgia and Noah is beautifully written and each fit within their own era. And whilst romantic love is the focus of the book, the love (or sometimes lack there of) between family and friends is just as significant and well written.

I enjoyed the dual perspectives from both different characters and time periods. I did not see the ending coming which did not disappoint for either Scarlett and Jameson or Georgia and Noah.

A slow start for me with this one but by the end I was sobbing and so madly in love with this story and the characters. The plot twist was 🤌 chefs kiss.

I honestly love how this book had two great love story's in it I honestly never saw the ending coming I wish that in real life Jameson would've survived and looked for her and had a different ending but overall it was such an emotional book I loved it
