Sloan has been grieving the sudden death of her fiancé from a motorcycle accident for 2 years. Her life has shrunk down to memory marking the events of their life together and scraping by until the next memorable date. Then a dog jumps in her sunroof and decides she is his. Sloan tries to contact Tucker’s previous owner until his voicemail fills up. When he resurfaces, she tells him she’s keeping the dog…and that’s how a text and calling relationship turns into a whirlwind couple of weeks before he goes on music tour.
This book tugs at the heartstrings for sure. I love Sloans friendship with Kristen. I adore Ernie and Zane in Jason’s life. Jason and his family are pretty darn perfect. Sloan is not an easy character for me to love.She doesn’t make great choices when she’s sad. Her network of support is minuscule. Adding a therapist would be a great start. Making some serious online artist friends would be a good idea. Having more than a single female friend is essential to breathing (and my friend group is small!) One friend and so distant from her family seems terribly unrealistic to me, so I have to downgrade the review.
This book tugs at the heartstrings for sure. I love Sloans friendship with Kristen. I adore Ernie and Zane in Jason’s life. Jason and his family are pretty darn perfect. Sloan is not an easy character for me to love.
