I can only imagine the debilitating loss that comes after your spouse dies. This book captured that grief—losing yourself, becoming a single parent, having to return to “normal”—so well. Despite being overwhelmingly sad at times, there was still joy, humor, and a bit of romance.
It’s a little over two years after Kate’s husband died and she’s holding it together for her young son. Being thrown suddenly into being a single parent has forced her to grieve inwardly and only when time allows for it—which isn’t often. But when a work trip goes haywire, she finally has the time away from her son to process the depth of her loss.
Expect to be a bit heartbroken with this one.

Kate is coming back to herself after the death of her great love, Cameron, two years earlier. There are lighthearted moments, lots of growth and revelations, and a bit of romantic reawakening. A few surprises too.
