This book was beautiful and hard and heavy. 

I can only imagine the debilitating loss that comes after your spouse dies. This book captured that grief—losing yourself, becoming a single parent, having to return to “normal”—so well. Despite being overwhelmingly sad at times, there was still joy, humor, and a bit of romance. 

It’s a little over two years after Kate’s husband died and she’s holding it together for her young son. Being thrown suddenly into being a single parent has forced her to grieve inwardly and only when time allows for it—which isn’t often. But when a work trip goes haywire, she finally has the time away from her son to process the depth of her loss. 

Expect to be a bit heartbroken with this one.

This book is very heavy and truly a story about grief.

Kate is coming back to herself after the death of her great love, Cameron, two years earlier. There are lighthearted moments, lots of growth and revelations, and a bit of romantic reawakening. A few surprises too.
