“Hey, Jojo?” he yells.
“Yeah.” I yell back.
“I’m going to marry you someday.”

Her tear-streaked face is beautiful. I want to wipe away her tears. I want to take the last ten years and erase them. I want to start over.

As soon as I started the book, It was already hitting me in the feels. It was heartbreaking how they went their separate ways. I felt for Josie and the way Liam just left. I was happy that she was dating a good man that who takes care of her and her son. She is doing good with her flower shop. She has a good life, one anyone would be happy to have. And still, she has those moments where she can't help but think of Liam. I understood Josie's dislike of Liam completely, when he returned. I would be pissed too. I liked how she handled certain situations when it came to her son Noah and Liam. However, I think she could have done better when it came to her boyfriend Nick.

I thought for sure we’d spend forever together. I thought our love was one of a kind. I would almost be okay if he had met someone else and fallen in love, but he didn’t. He just left.

At first I didn't know what to think of Liam. I was so freaking hurt with the way he left her with no explanation. The more I read, though, the more I started to like him. I loved how he was with Noah. It was so adorable. I didn't like so much how he would confuse her about her feelings while she was still in a relationship with her Fiance Nick. Which is why, I am so glad that Josie didn't just fall at his feet with love, but instead it happened slowly. Liam was overall a great guy, but he was a total idiot as young man and still kind of was in the present. He would let others influence his decisions. It happened when he left, and again with his PR lady Sam.

I enjoyed the secondary characters in this book. Especially Katelyn who was so supportive and strong. I actually admired her for being that way after the loss of her husband Mason. I loved her twin girls that were such cuties. And Noah was so adorable and just full of life. Nick I liked but could be a bit of a jerk too. Nonetheless, I got where he was coming from. It must of been very hard for him to know he was losing the woman he loved. The story was a light with a few emotional moments. Very low in steam with there being only one sex scene that wasn't too descriptive. I loved the flow between past and present. I think it worked well without becoming annoying. I didn't like the reason Liam left, which we find out near the end. I think it was a stupid reason. The ending was sweet and tad bit cheesy. Overall, it was a good read and one I recommend when you want to read something that isn't full of angst and drama. It's definitely an 'inbetween books' read you should check out.
