It was ok. Fairly obvious. It was performed well. Just wasn't one of her best books.

Story
Romance can be a little complicated when you get sucked into a wormhole. Just ask high school English teacher June Flint. One little solar flare happens and suddenly you find yourself 85 years in the future. Eighty-five years from your dream job. Your ailing mother whose only companion in this world is you. Your favorite stuffed-crust pizza from DeLucia’s on Sunday nights. But when June’s cell phone inexplicably picks up a signal, she’s able to call back to the present—more specifically, four weeks before she accidentally time traveled.

Story
Beth and Cath are leaving their husbands. This is a story about two very different women. One is wealthy and having an affair with a man who gives her the kind of love that her cold, detached husband does not. One is living hand to mouth, suffering at the hands of a violent partner who would rather see her dead than leave him. You may think you know these women already and how their lives will unfold. Beth will live happily ever after with her little girl and her soulmate. Cath will go back to her abusive husband. And these two women will never cross paths. But you will be wrong.

Couldn't stomach the ending

Doing the "right thing" can sometimes be "the wrong thing" and vice versa. I absolutely hated how this book too down the "murderer" The "no one is above the law" crap... uggg. That is the whole problem, so many in this book were above the law and the person who evened the score when there was NO chance of justice through proper channels, who saved their own life as well as at least 2 others is the one punished. I hated every second once I knew what Dan was going to do. I kept hoping for a better outcome, but no. If you think the law is the law no matter what then you might like it just fine. But if you believe that some circumstances should be considered then you'll probably hate it too.
It's too bad, I really enjoyed the first 2 books and really like Dan Riley's character, now... I may understand what the author was trying to do but I don't like it. Just my opinion.

I sped through the 1st two books in the series and this one started off great but it seemed to end abruptly. Nothing was tied up. It's really unfortunate because the story lines were good. It was really disappointing. I'm hoping the next one (that I already paid for) will be better.

I have exactly 5 hours and 10 minutes to get from Boston to New York City or the professional opportunity of a lifetime disappears. My only travel option? The second to last seat on a discount bus. Across from the bathroom. Wearing last night’s clothes (don’t ask). All worth it if I can make it in time.

Laid off from her department store job, Carmen has perilously little cash and few options. The prospect of spending Christmas with her perfect sister Sofia, in Sofia’s perfect house with her perfect children and her perfectly ordered yuppie life, does not appeal. Frankly, Sofia doesn’t exactly want her prickly sister Carmen there, either. But Sofia has yet another baby on the way, a mother desperate to see her daughters get along, and a client who needs help revitalizing his shabby old bookshop. So Carmen moves in and takes the job.

I was not expecting to love this book as much as I did. When it started I was very unsure about the narrator's voice, but as the story went on I found it perfect. I don't think I would have loved it as much if I had read it on my own!
The story was sweet and the characters flawed and absolutely wonderful.

I have loved every other book by this author, but for some reason I really had a hard time with this one. I hated how weak the main character appeared to others despite being so strong and she never got any vindication. This one will bother me for awhile and I wish I hadn't listened
