Ashley Poston has to be one of the most incredible authors, the way she depicts love and grief is just so real. How she manages to write about the type of love that people long for, whilst also making me reevaluate my own life and unpack my own grief will never cease to amaze me.

It’s been six months since the worst day of Clementines life, six months since her beloved aunt who chased the moon, passed away. She’s finally moving into her magical apartment that she’s inherited when she finds a handsome stranger sitting in her kitchen, the strangest part about it, he’s seven years in the past. Unable to explain the truth to him she lets him stay in the apartment with her as she moves between seven years ago and the present, where she finds herself falling for him - hard and fast. It’s simply the right person… at the wrong time.

Everything about this book was just perfect, the characters, the romance, the concept and how brilliantly it was executed - I just want to wrap myself up in this story. Honestly it really has become one of my top 3 reads… ever? I’m moving to New York to find me a chef and I’ll be getting a lemon tattoo imminently. 🍋
