Named a Most Anticipated Book of 2024 by Entertainment Weekly · Today.com · Paste · Daily Waffle ·The Nerd Daily and more!

Helen Zhang hasn’t seen Grant Shepard once in the thirteen years since the tragic accident that bound their lives together forever.

Now a bestselling author, Helen pours everything into her career. She’s even scored a coveted spot in the writers’ room of the TV adaptation of her popular young adult novels, and if she can hide her imposter syndrome and overcome her writer’s block, surely the rest of her life will fall into place too. LA is the fresh start she needs. After all, no one knows her there. Except…

Grant has done everything in his power to move on from the past, including building a life across the country. And while the panic attacks have never quite gone away, he’s well liked around town as a screenwriter. He knows he shouldn’t have taken the job on Helen’s show, but it will open doors to developing his own projects that he just can’t pass up.

Grant’s exactly as Helen remembers him—charming, funny, popular, and lovable in ways that she’s never been. And Helen’s exactly as Grant remembers too—brilliant, beautiful, closed off. But working together is messy, and electrifying, and Helen’s parents, who have never forgiven Grant, have no idea he’s in the picture at all.

When secrets come to light, they must reckon with the fact that theirs was never meant to be any kind of love story. And yet… the key to making peace with their past—and themselves—might just lie in holding on to each other in the present.

Heartfelt love story

Loved the descriptive writing and while the story at times is quite predictable I really loved the depth of feelings shared around the suicide. I didn’t like the male voice that much and would love to see this as a movie.

What’s up with Andrew

Good story. Overall good performance. But every time Andrew narrates, he sounds like he’s angry. All. The. time. Really got annoying.

Solid debut, narrators didn’t mesh

Solid debut, but the ending fell a bit short of my expectations, especially considering the title. Also, I love Teddy Hamilton, but he is too comedic a narrator for this book.

Tenderly beautiful

Love the complicated dialogue between other characters and themselves. The fact that you were able to capture this beautiful love story and coping with grief in ways that no one likes to talk about was well done. Thank you for this beautiful story, I can not wait to see what you do next.

Loved the love story!

No complaints about the book. I was excited to read this novel from start to finish. The story kept me interested and I liked a lot of the characters. The love interest in the book was very interesting and frustrating at times but kept me coming back for more!
