Paige Toon at her best. Books rarely make me cry (and the ones that do are never romance books!), but never has a love story made my heart ache so much it’s brought me to tears. I’ve read every book by Paige Toon and the last few have had me meh-ing on the fence, but I adored this one!
I was promised emotional devastation and instead I got immaturity, over-descriptive writing, and no chemistry between the main characters
"An earth shattering secret. A life-changing love story."
Wren visits her father and his family in the US for the summer after the devastating realization that her fiancée was in love with someone else. Anders lost his wife 4 years ago and despises the idea of ever trying to move on.
Through friendship and forgiveness their worlds inevitably collide. This book takes you through multiple avenues of love (friendship love, romantic love, sibling/family love) and learning how to live the life best suited for you.
Anders completely stole my heart from the moment we met him. There is just something about dark, broody handsome men that immediate draw me in! Probably because like Wren, you just want to make them whole again. His dedication to his family and ultimately his wife was remarkable to say the least, and I struggled not being able to reach through the book and hug him sometimes.
Wren is insecure at first, but overtime you can almost picture her blossoming into this new lifestyle on the farm that seems to suit her. By the end, I was audibly cheering her on for using her voice to have her own back and claim the life she knows is right for her.
This was my first book by Paige Toon, and I couldn't be happier with my choice! An absolute treasure for those who love stories of broken hearts finding each other and mending them together.

i found this book very boring and dry.
the entire premise of it to begin with made absolutely no sense to me. why would someone go and visit their dad who they have a poor relationship with and hasn’t particularly enjoyed visiting in the past and also hasn’t seen for 5 years after going through a really hard and difficult breakup?? you just wouldn’t do that!
the book is overly descriptive which is what made is boring for me and i found wren’s character very frustrating and grating. she was written to sound like a teenager rather than someone who is supposed to be in their 30s.
overall i just did not enjoy this book in the slightest and hope to never have to see it ever again
