I loved this story. If you enjoy second-chance romances, breaking generational cycles of trauma, and healing this is a great book. I  recommend checking the trigger warnings.

Loved the romance and the growth of the love. Could’ve done without the teen sex, in this specific context, and the details was unnecessary. (I don’t mind acknowledging that teens have sex, but when a book is a romance, it feels inappropriate for teen sex scenes to be intermingled with adult sex scenes.) I appreciated the way the romance was written, it was beautifully written. I did feel the daughter was a bit too precocious, but in general I’m not really a fan of the overly precocious child. They never feel like real children, even precocious ones.

This book made me rethink real deep inexplainable passionate love. Shane and Eva truly were meant for one another and found each other across decades and timelines. Highly recommend

Absolutely loved this book! It had everything for me, from real world issues to smut. Often authors don't know how to write children but Williams did a fantastic job with pre-teen and teenagers perspectives. The character growth felt real and true. Loved all the imagery and descriptions.
