This was a fantastic book. The angst pulls at your heartstrings and is a true tearjerker. I loved the characters and how they relearned what they love and missed about each other. There were a lot of funny (and some corny) moments that added levity to a heavy relationship. 

It is fast paced and takes place over just a couple days, but you can clearly feel the emotions and connection that the characters had. I wish Tom wasn’t going to propose and was just meeting his gf at his house, would’ve been a little more realistic but I get why it had to be a proposal for the plot.  

I listened on audio and the narrators were also fantastic. If you like other Lauren Layne books you’ll likely enjoy this one.
