“If you only shine light on your flaws, all your perfects will dim.”

I didn’t fully digest this quote until I finished the book and finally understood. This is just one of the many impactful quotes I took away from this book.
This is definitely an emotional rollercoaster following an imperfect marriage between Quinn & Graham. Starting off as Graham waiting outside Quinn’s boyfriends apartment having learned his girlfriend was cheating on him with Quinn’s partner Ethan. These two begin their journey as strangers to lovers. But, this won’t be all daisies and sunshines. We get a glimpse of the struggles, pain, and heartache these two experience within years of marriage and we simply follow them along the journey. 
Themes surrounding strangers to lovers and second chances, you will definitely cry and feel the emotions here. 
It was definitely a good emotional read!

Didn’t really enjoy this book like I thought I would. Hated Quinn’s character. She was just way too selfish in my opinion. Even when you have all of the heartbreak and emotional trauma she has, you should never treat your spouse the way she treated Graham. Her avoidance to fix their marriage was just irritating, especially when she complained about it not being how it used to be. Granted, I am not at the point in my life to what children, nor have I gone through the losses of trying for one. So maybe this book just didn’t make sense to me. I wonder if it would if I had read this a bit later in life?

Not my favorite of Hoover’s novels, but still touching, interesting, and fast-paced. I felt sad for the characters most of the book but the end is good, if a little predictable. Also, it isn’t as spicy as some of her other books.

Boyfriend Graham is wonderful, amazing, a solid book boyfriend
Husband Graham  awful, horrible, immature and not a great husband. 
I guess that fits with showing how couples grow and change over time and how it isn't always for the best. This does not have a HEA and everyone should check the triggers going into this book.
