need a whole book on maggie and peter. overall good book! i really liked how realistic the book was that both the main characters needed to find themselves before coming together. but will really had poor fern run after him TWICE. they have a lot to work on… but they’ll do it. will is a loyal man with issues, and fern needs to figure out her own ish with the resort as well. but really at the end of the day i was more invested in maggie and peter and honestly, that man had me crying. CRYING. justice for peter please.

I loved the dual timelines ⏳, the lakeside setting 🌊, and the slow unraveling of their connection ❤️. While some moments felt a little predictable, the chemistry between Fern and Will made me root for them the whole way through. Their journey of forgiveness and growth reminded me how powerful it can be to get a second chance at love.
