This was a great read! I really liked the flashback scenes as I felt it really showed you how Marnie and Jupiter's relationship originally unfolded and brought you on the emotional rollercoaster that ensued. I generally was not a fan of Jupe's manipulation of getting Marnie to New York and I don't think that it was realistic that she'd have left her job at NASA. I think we could've used a lot more groveling and actually proving to Marnie that he'd changed and grown. I also thought the use of his tattoos to demonstrate how he regretted his decisions was well done, as well as revealing that Marnie had done the same. A sweet second chance romance for sure!
