I read this in one day!! It’s been awhile since a romance hooked me right from the start. This was a wonderful book that will have you feeling all the feels. If you’re new to romance, love romance, or just need a palette cleanser like me this is one I would most definitely recommend. 

I’m a big believer in fate and that we could meet the right person at the wrong time. Timing is everything and I truly believe everything happens for a reason. This book had me reflecting on my own past relationships and the thought of fate and past love. It truly will make you think and any book that can evoke emotion out of me or get my brain moving is an automatic 5 star read for me. 

I usually connect more with female main characters but the book starting with the male main characters point of view made me like him more than the FMC. I enjoyed hearing his point of view and hearing his love story first rather than hearing more of the females perspective so I thought that was pretty cool.
