TJR's debut! You can tell how much she's grown as a writer since this book and I think that's a beautiful thing. Forever, Interrupted follows Elsie Porter and Ben Ross. They cross paths at a pizza place on New Year's Day and their connection is instantaneous. They fall in love within weeks and elope together in a matter of months. Nine days after their wedding, Ben is involved in a tragic accident and dies. This all happens in a matter of pages. TJR structures the story through alternating chapters, moving from present day, as Elsie is navigating her grief, and the past, as Elsie is falling in love. The unique relationship in this book is between Elsie and her mother-in-law, Susan. It offers the reminder what a true privilege it is to love someone. No matter the length of time.
