I so thoroughly enjoyed this story. The narration as usual was awesome.
But I was so disappointed that the long story ended with a rush at the most important meeting, which was long-awaited throughout, and pff it was over.

Gave it 5 stars but a little rushed at end.

This book is set on a timeline of just one day but there is a lot of looking back, to more than 20 years before this one special day.

The characters are totally loveable, except for one huge exception, and this exception is the cause of much heartache. However, she is also responsible, in a very round about way—and with no effort on her part—for the happily ever after that the reader is hanging out for. This HEA is the culmination of years and years where a secret heartache is carried around by the main character. She lives her life...a life of blissful highs and despondent lows— a life not too dissimilar to a fair proportion of this crazy world’s population.

This is a book that makes you ache for two people who had their dream snatched from them by a so called friend, and it makes you want to commit violence against that so called friend.

I have never read anything by Shari Low before but I will certainly be reading more. Helen McAlpine’s narration is just perfect, she has a huge range of different voices, male as well as female and she does well with the American accent. I just love her native Scottish accent and though some might find it a little difficult to decipher, I had no problem as I have Scotland in my blood. 😁

Love laughter and heartbreak.

Loved the interconnectedness of the characters and the way their stories played out. I liked the way the story flipped between the present and the past, explaining the growth of the main characters.This had me hooked, wanting to know the outcomes of the various relationships. Highly recommend this book!

A book to keep you reading all night!
