This might be my favorite second chance romance. It drew me in from the first page and got better and better. The writing was excellent, the characters were very well developed, there was mystery, secrets revealed, and so much healing. 

Sofie broke Theo’s heart when she ran from Landmark Mountain eight years ago, but now she’s back and it doesn’t take long for Theo to realize there was a good reason she fled. Sofie and Theo have a lot of hurdles to jump in order to find their way back to each other. Sofie has to face her past and reveal all her secrets to Theo, and Theo has to come to terms with those secrets. 

I loved Sofie from page one. She was a strong character and it definitely came through the page. She loved Theo and never gave up on her dream of returning to Landmark Mountain to get her life back. Her story was tragic and heartbreaking but it showed her strength and the love she had for Theo. 

Theo struggled with his feelings for Sofie. He loved her but also hated that she left. He felt like he wasn’t good enough for her but also blamed himself for not noticing what she was going through. His struggle to not only accept that his love for Sofie never died and then to accept she wasn’t going to leave him again was almost as heartbreaking as Sofie’s past. 

I loved Sofie and Theo. Their story was emotional but they got ever they wanted in the end. I loved Theo’s relationship with his siblings and the way the Landmark family opened their hearts back up to Sofie. I also loved getting a glimpse into both Sofie and Theo’s memories. And I absolutely lost it when the reason for the title was finally revealed at the end. I love this series!
