I knew this book was going to be a 5 ⭐️ in the first 50 pages. There haven’t been many books I’ve read that the characters felt as human as Shane, Eva, and even Audre. The way their joys, agonies, and everything in between are described is nothing short of perfection. I will admit not a lot of “plot” happens in this book it’s all character development and reflection, but if you love that please read. I’m normally not a second chance romance lover, this one is perfection. 

Second Chance Romance, Trauma, 2 1/2 🔥

“You push stuff away that isn’t safe and obvious, Mom, but love isn’t safe and obvious. Love is risky. Take the risk, woman.”

“I’ve been roaming around forever, and I’ve never been anywhere I wasn’t itching to leave.”

I adored this. The only reason it isn't a full five star review is because some things weren't as fleshed out as I would have liked them to be. I found Eva and Shane rekindled a tad too fast but other than that this book is pure perfection. The way the characters were written and they felt like real people. The way the story flowed and how everything just made sense. This is more than just romance, this is a deep dive into these characters past, present and possibly future. It's perfection.

Content warnings below 🥺 If you can’t read especially upsetting scenes including the content warnings below, this one might not be for you. This was one of the reasons I could not give this book 5 stars, it was quite stressful to get through at times 🫠

However, what an incredible love story! Imagine having seven days in June, then reuniting with this certain person 15 years later 😳

I’m also so glad that Eva and Shane made it back together, although I was also kind of satisfied when they took their break? I thought it was important to acknowledge breaks in relationships too 🥹

I loved the other characters too; they felt mostly well-rounded 🥰 Brilliant.

4 out of 5 stars for me ✨ Thank you!
