We love a good hero who yearns and burns for a heroine, and Caleb did just that for Ellie; but because this is the best friend/sibling’s widow trope (which I’m starting to realize I am not a fan of), the story just didn’t grab me as much as it first did in the beginning. The angst and plot points kept on getting repeated and it was just the same thing over and over again. By the time I got 60% through with the story, I had to switch over to audio just so it could be over faster.

All in All though, it was an okay read sans the repetitiveness. I liked seeing a different angle of Ellie's feelings as she tries to sort through her differing feeling for her former love and this new flame with her late husband's best friend; and like I said we love a man who pines for the woman he has always loved.
