Teetering on the fence between 4 and 5 stars.

I think if the ending would’ve been tweaked just slightly, I would’ve been a mess of tears. But what we think was going to happen doesn’t happen, after all.

Liked this a lot. My first Elin Hilderbrand novel: check.

This book transported me to 1969 New England, which is exactly what I wanted it to do. The characters were interesting, and I found myself invested in their journeys. Can’t wait to read the follow-up.

Sweet story, a little too sweet and tied up nicely for me.
