It was a lovely situation romance set up! Though I was left worrying about the sister.

Daphne could be such a frustrating main character at times. I am not sure what to take from that.
I would have loved to read more of her and Miles’ relationship developing after she decides to stay (because we do see her make healthy choices, for herself) and learn how she grows. But then, I do believe that she learns and grows in the book already.  


But it is a lovely story. And I believe the portrayal of the ways in which we can develop deeply ingrained patterns of thinking, as well as how those come out. It’s just frustrating to read - and it’s a shame the drama lasts somewhat longer than the rebuilding.

There is a reason I save new Emily Henry's for my birthday. It feels like a gift to go on these journeys with her characters. 
I devoured this. I loved Miles and Daphne both seperately and together. 
I'm going through a phase of personal growth and the way these characters reflect on their pasts and decide to do better for themselves is inspiring.

This is so Nick and Jess (from New Girl) coded except she's more reserved and he's more of a all round charmer.
