β€œWe all have our demons and reasons for not wanting to dredge up the past, but this might just be one of those times when it’s worth experiencing the pain and reliving the unhappy memories, if only for the chance to rewrite parts of them.”

Thoughts:

This book is easily my favourite romance read of 2024. This was the perfect read for the end of summer. A story set in a beautiful small town in British Columbia, Canada, filled with adventures in the wildness, a cast of heartwarming & unforgettable characters, and a love story that will give you all the warm & fuzzy feelings.  

I loved the dual timelines in this story and how I got to experience the past part of Oli and Charlee's story through the letters they wrote to each other as part of a university pen pal program. I loved watching their love story unfold in the letters they wrote to each other in the past & watching them reconcile and fall in love again when fate unexpectedly pushes them to meet in the present. I enjoyed getting little bits and pieces of their past sprinkled throughout the story. It kept me so engaged and the pages turning with the need for answers about their past. 

I loved how emotional I was when I was reading this book. All the sadness and heartbreak I felt for these characters. Charlee and Oli were perfect for each other. From their shared passions and outlooks on life to their completely undeniable chemistry, it was such a joy to read their story. The best part was the slow burn; the really slow burn. It added so much pining and tension to the story and I just couldn't get enough.
