Wowowow, this book really knocked me out with how good and how emotional it became. I found myself staying up far (far) too late to keep reading, I was so invested in Elliot and Ama's evolving connection.

The split between Elliot in the past and Ama in the present did a lot toward making the second-chance romance work, and I looked forward to both sides of the story. And DAMN it got me tearing up, thinking about their emotional journey. A fair amount of readers complain about the wedding planning taking over the romance, and while I understand the criticism, for me Elliot's POV definitely balanced it out.

AH this book was truly so much better than I expected, and I am so grateful for that.
