“She'd been a flower. Snipped from the root, quick to wilt, temporary. She'd existed to be lovely and to be chosen. No one had expected her to last.”

“Here was the taste of it — a little bitter, a little sweet, some citrus brightness, maybe honey. And here was meaning. A home, hers alone.”

Wow, where to begin. I went into this one blind and it exceeded any expectations I had. This is a story about the lives of Sara and Emilie and the steps that lead them to each other. I was so captivated by and invested in both of their lives. The story felt real and raw and the ending definitely lived up to that vibe. I truly enjoyed this one and highly recommend.
