Description

Divorce attorney Harper James can't catch a break. Bad enough that she runs into her ex-hubby, Nick, at her sister's destination wedding, but now, by a cruel twist of fate, she's being forced to make a cross-country road trip with him. And her almost-fiancé back at home is not likely to be sympathetic.

Harper can't help that Nick has come blazing back into her life in all of his frustratingly appealing, gorgeous architect glory. But in Nick's eyes, Harper's always been the one. If they can only get it right this time, forever might be waiting—just around the bend.

    Harper and Nick run into one another at their siblings wedding. Yes, you heard that right. Her sister is marrying his brother. It is a weird situation all around. Harper is begging her sister to stop getting married. To wait and see how things go. They have not known each other long. It worries Harper, since for her sister it is her 3rd marriage already. Nick admits to her he still loves her. Even when she brings a soon to be ex-boyfriend to the shindig with her. He saves her when tragedy strikes, and she realizes that her feeling for him may still be there. Nick and Harper married young themselves, and had a misunderstanding that grand slammed its way into a divorce. If only they had a good example, or strength and trust in one another - they would have made it. This visit gets prolonged since, she cannot get home and has to road-trip it with Nick or wait several days for a flight. They seem to get along pretty well and it helps smooth over some ruffled feathers on the way back. I enjoyed the character development and I am glad how it turns out.

    This is one of the best romance books I have ever read. Loved the characters and their past seemed so relatable and real. Not to mention clever humor and a well developed romance. A must read!

    Laughed, cried, couldn't put it down. Really emotional. Loved Harper, but Nick wasn't my favorite hero of all time.

  • Must read!

    Ok, I never write reviews...but this book made me want to sit down right after I finished reading it and take the time to do so. This book was a breath of fresh air...wonderful characters, an actual plot, no distracting grammatical errors...but most of all, a great story by a great storyteller. I didn't want to put the book down, yet I didn't want it to end! Wittily told, insightful to actual human emotions, well worth the read!

  • Not as good as everyone says it is.

    There isn't really much development of characters. I'm disappointed bc I purchased this based on other reviews.

  • Enjoyable, Quick Read

    Kristan Higgins is on of my favorite romance authors. I've read all of her books so far and enjoyed this one as well. SPOILERS I liked how Harper and Nick were flawed in their own ways that lead to the end of their marriage. It was hard at first accepting Harper's reasons for her inability to allow anyone to be close to her, but seeing her resolve her issues with her mom and hence her dad and Beverlee was satisfying. I did find it a bit convenient at the end that Nick was already on the island when she finally decided to go fight for him. I would've liked to see a little bit more build up, so it felt rushed to me but seeing as that the book was at 400+ pages at that point, I think the author was ready to finish. All and all it was enjoyable and I'm looking forward to the next book.

  • Amazing

    This is by far my favorite Kristan Higgins book! I have read most of her books and none of them top this one. This book made me laugh and cry. I absolutely love Harper and Nick. They have amazing chemistry and they are so funny together. Pick this book up, you will not be disappointed.
