A magical, velvety read that takes on numerous tragedies with graceful emotional intelligence. While not escapist, this novel is a beautiful, hopeful, and centered celebration of the strength of women as they navigate the challenges of life. A read I will undoubtedly cherish for a while.

adventurous emotional

“So this was how it felt—to be dealt a blow, to pause, to keep going in spite of it. Not to start over but to continue.”

Literary fiction meets romance in this stunning novel. Side-by-side storylines carry two leading ladies through traumatic young adult experiences and into their own story together. It was beautiful.
