Classic TJR. On the better end. 2 life paths. Love the theme of best friends who are there for each other.

3.5 ⭐️ rounded up.

This was a good weekend read. I picked this out because of the “second chance romance” trope. I enjoyed the two parallel stories but found myself skipping a bit one of them because I liked the other one better

Omg I loved this book! I loved how certain things were always destined to happen, no matter the timeline. I also liked how it was told from the two different timelines, and how one decision can completely alter not only your life, but others’ lives as well.
