Felt like there were some gaps at times, but super well written. Too cliche at the end.
Wow! This was an obvious five star read and I could tell after just a few chapters. Thank you to NetGalley and Penguin Group Putnam for the advanced copy. I am sharing my thoughts and review voluntarily.
The story told is so incredibly heartfelt and the characters immediately grabbed me. I loved how Alison and Adam grew individually through their grief. This was an honest portrayal of friendship, grief and growing up. I immediately mourned after the last chapter and wished I could have savored it, but I just couldn’t put it down. I am now eager to read everything Ellie Palmer writes.

Currently in survival mode at my house after we all battled the flu and now we have three MORE days stuck inside together, so I’m not in the mood for a real review but…super cute romance and looking forward to more Ellie Palmer in the future!

There were moments when I thought for sure I’d give this book just 3 stars. I wanted to take Al and just SHAKE HER sometimes! But the end was so perfect, it brought my rating up.
