Have you ever met someone and thought, "Wow, this timing is terrible?" That's exactly what happens when Alison meets Adam at a funeral. Too bad Adam doesn't feel the same way. Or does he? 

Ellie Palmer pulls no punches as she tackles the tough topic of "cheating cancer," meeting new people, figuring out what you want in life and who you want in it. I was hooked from the very first page, wondering how this was going to end and who was going to be hurt in the process. Through friendship and bar trivia, this story developed into one of my favorite kinds of books: the ones where the story has romance and not the other way around. 

I highly recommend this book!
