Soooo so close to 5 stars, but I felt like the ending was a bit rushed. Trying to explain this book to anyone is going to be near impossible, but I loved every minute of it.

I don’t know how to say I liked this book withoit getting into the spoilers details but I will say I was on the fence reading it for so long because im a hard core romance reader but surprise! This had the slowest of burns. Some of the logistics in the book confused me but what do I know about living in Alaska in the 70s 🤷🏻‍♀️ great book. I felt like I was on the verge of tears for the whole last 1/3 of the book which was great since I was looking for a rip your heart out book. Definitely give this book a shot if you’re on the fence I think it won’t disappoint
