This book was a wonderful read! With the two timelines you're able to get glimpses of Emily and Stevens' younger years but also a better understanding of their relationship! The realistic feel of this book is what I enjoyed the most! A lot of people will be able to relate in some way with this book! Which for me just made this an even better read! It's a book about family and and sometimes things can happen to stretch that bond, beyond repair well you'll just have to read the book to find out!
