Why Should You Read This?
A heartwarming story on loss, grief, and new beginnings. I loved Jack and Lily’s chemistry, but I wish the author had delved deeper into their story. I felt it was explored superficially. It is a typical British romance, and is a charming read. This was my first book by Maxine, however, it definitely won’t be my last.
