The dual timeline in this book is very well-done. The characters truly felt like younger and older versions of themselves and they were both endearing despite their flaws. There was a lot of angst in both timelines, which was well-done (CLo certainly know how to write angst!!) but it was also heavier than their other books. I will say that this was not my favorite CLo, but I wasn't surprised about that once I read in the acknowledgements that it was categorized as "women's fiction" rather than romance.
