"Rich, romantic, beautifully drawn and utterly compelling" Jane Green, New York Times bestselling author
Life is short. Sometimes you have to take a chance…
Two single parents, Scott and Frankie, meet by chance.
Their homes are thousands of miles apart: Frankie lives somewhat chaotically with her children on the shoreline of North Norfolk, while Scott's life is in the mountains of British Columbia. Distance divides them – but it seems that a million little things connect them. A spark ignites, one so strong that it dares them to take a risk.
But fate has one more trick in store…
There are some truths about life and family we only learn when we grow up. There are some we never thought we'd have to.

I appreciated that this was a story about two independent people falling in love and respecting each other by not pressuring one another to change who they are. This was a love story, a story of true love, not a mere romance novel. The point of view changes periodically throughout the course of the story between Frankie, Scott, and their family which really fleshed out the familiarity you come to feel for all the characters. I strive to provide spoiler free reviews but I must caution you to have a tissue handy for this book. The synopsis promised a trick and a trick you get. Don't let that put you off though, definitely pick this book up. It's the perfect book to escape with this weekend.
****/5 stars

There is definitely a difference between a love story and a romance novel. I appreciate them both depending on my current mood. :)
Thanks for being a part of the tour!
I think being able to make characters feel that real is such a gift! These types of books really stick with me over the long haul! I'm glad you enjoyed the book so much. !
