No shut up I'm so emotional 😭😭😭😭. Every single scene right after Oliver's solo performance had me fighting tears. And the wedding scene with Oliver's dad 🥺🥺.. the epilogue from both their POVs😭😭..and Reese and Emery...I am crying again. This was beautiful!

Pretty decent book and story. I mostly struggled with Emery and Oliver's actually love and romance. I loved their individual stories and growth but didn't really feel much connection to them falling in love. It felt as though the chemistry was lacking for me.

This story follows Emery and Oliver as they navigate financial hardship and grief. This story is very fast paced and character driven. It is a cute and quick read, but there are two moments mentioned that I felt would be major plot points to never be brought up again.

Specifically a 5 year flashback to where Emery and her sister Sammie meet Alex and Oliver. It doesn’t say their names explicitly, but they throw out baby names to the pregnant sister as Reese is Alex’s middle name and Emery’s daughter is named Reese. And it’s never once talked about. Ever. They even took a photo together and in the end Emery says she wishes she could have met Alex, when she obviously did?
