Review:
Wow, this book just really blew me away. There couldn’t be two people who are more
different than each other and to have the same thing happen to them just bought
them together. This book really was
beautifully written, I was riveted to the edge of my chair waiting to see what was
going to happen next. I laughed, I
cried, I felt bad and it was just all over the place for me. Amazing job done by J.J. McAvoy.
What a situation to be in, your fiancé runs off with someone
else’s fiancé while you are in the middle of getting married (right at the
alter!), this is what happened to Eli and Gwen.
How depressing for the both of them.
Somehow it just so happens they kind of run in the same circles
inadvertently and they begin to run into each other even more. So they talk and comfort one another because
really how many people has this happened to before. This is something they can both relate to and
man what a shame for it to happen, but a blessing in disguise. The two couldn’t be any more different, but
they balance each other out like ying and yang.
I don’t really want to give too much away about the book
because I am about to just gush all about it.
There were moments in the book where you couldn’t help but laugh at the
banter between these two characters. But
then there would be moments when if you are like me and totally get attached to
characters in books you could not help to cry about it. Man there was a lot of crying there for a
while, but again you have to read the book to see what I’m talking about.
Let’s not get away from ourselves though because there were
a lot of really great amazing intimate moments between the two main characters
and smaller ones between others. I
really enjoyed this book from beginning to end.
I couldn’t put it down and I’m so happy I got the opportunity to read
something from this author because now I know I will definitely be looking out
for them. Amazing read just what
everyone needs, because it has a little bit of everything, even that lovely backstabbing
and groveling you wish for sometimes.
Love the cover too, because you can tell how different they
are and I really loved the setting. Not
only in New York where everyone is so different but they all come together, but
the Alaskan scenery too was very descriptive and beautiful. Almost makes me want to go there and
experience it myself. Love this book.
