What a beautiful, heartbreaking, and ultimately sanguine story, with full characters making hard decisions and expressing big emotions. I did not want it to end. Josie Silver's writing never erred, and Olivia Vinall's narration was so tender, bringing Lydia fully to life. Easily my favorite romance of 2022 so far.
