Marriage ebbs and flows but when the ebbs become too much can one hold on to what the marriage is built on?

This was my first CoHo read and I loved it! 
It tackles the issue of infertility  with sensitivity, honesty and care. 
The characters Quinn and Graham were lovable and I loved reading the ‘now’ and ‘then’ parts of their story, giving a greater context to their relationship. 

The author could have wrapped the book up with the perfect happy families ending, but I love that it was more realistic and sensitive to the struggle of infertility, it doesn’t always end with a baby and that’s ok, though painful. I love that for Quinn and Graham their love for each other was enough! 💕

I read this because Collen herself said in a Q/A that she believes this book would get so much hype when it came out and she believes that this deserves more hype as this is her personal favourite book written by her. So I definitely have to read this after reading that , and OMG ! lemme tell you this is like a guide for " relationship". And every single human being should read this . It is soo good ❤️. This is story about Quinn and Graham in present day where there marriage is kind of falling apart and it takes us back to the day they fell in love with eachother. And you both present and past timing.

My heart was not prepared for this book.
It completely crushed me, gave me hope, hurted me, made me swoon, killed me in a million different ways and times and still was able to make me fall in love.
I was warned a few times by people who have read it that it was a deep and beautiful story, but I was not expecting this.
It's the second book I read by Colleen and its safe to say I'm becoming a huge fan.
Every chapter brings a wave of emotions to the surface and kept me hooked page after page.
I'm so in love with this story and I found a connection in Graham and Quinn's relationship to my own that I didn't think it was possible.
It's definitely a book I'll be re-reading in the future.
