I was not ready 😭. I wasn’t ready for this complicated love story. I wasn’t ready for the message and life lessons. The amount of times I heard “a broken clock is right twice a day” and never truly considered the multiple interpretations of this simple quote. This story is beautiful ❤️. 

“When it comes to love, don’t get so hung up on the timing. Just enjoy the time. When you’re with the perfect person, there will never be enough of it.”

Why?!?

This is such a beautiful love story. The ending ruined me, I knew something was going to happen but I wasn't expecting that. I recommend you read this book. You won't be disappointed!

This book had me frustrated more than a few times! Early on, Layla’s lack of communication had me siding with William—and trust me, I never want to side with the man. I get that the message was about living in the moment because tomorrow isn’t guaranteed, but that ending? Absolutely diabolical. I was not okay, and I’m still recovering.

Whew…
William and Layla have always  loved each other. But timing is everything. This is is such an emotional journey. 

Danielle Allen did her thang!
