Sono romantica e amo le storielle veloci dove si parla di seconde possibilità e amore che superano tutti i problemi anche se con difficoltà che sembrano montagne rocciose. Bhe questa novella mi ha fatto piangere, sperare, e sognare. Un amore così forte come il loro, con problematiche come le loro, bellissimo.

Cara è una giovane donna che rinuncia al college, alla sua vita. Tutto questo perchè sua madre sta male e ha un segreto che non vuole rivelare a Nathan. Nathan è giovane, con un futuro che ha già pianificato per bene, che include anche Cara. Ma quando lei decide di restare nella cittadina di campagna, lui parte e per dieci lunghi anni non si fa vedere. Lei ora è diventata una prof di botanica e una designer di giardini.
Lui la ingaggia per il suo giradino.
Ma poco dopo scopre che nella vita di cara c'è anche Brooke. Una "stella Marina", che ha 10 anni. giusti giusti.. e i suoi occhi...

4 capitoli veloci, che si leggono in mezzoretta, pieni di calore umano, di speranze, di sogni infranti, e di sogni che devono ancora avverarsi. Una storia d'amore che ha la possibilità di riprendere se tutti fanno uno sforzo.
Non mi aspettavo di piangere cosi tanto nel finale.
5 Stelle meritatissime!

A cozy short story about second chances . Cara is a sweet and selfless girl who sacrificed her own happiness for others . Nathan , on the other hand , i didn't like him . He was every opposite of cara but came to senses anyhow .

I didn't know that this book is a short story , only of 75 pages but no harm done . I loved how autumn was the main season this book was set in .

Second chance at love.
Cara never thought she will see her ex-boyfriend Nathan in Henderson again. She wasn't ready face him yet but she had to if she wants to keep her job landscaping his new house. She had her niece to take care of and she needs more as she grows older.
When Nathan saw Cara, lots of feelings were coming back and he couldn't believe she is still staying and her life is revolving around her niece.
Cara didn't want to face Nathan more than she absolutely have to so she decided to work harder and she find a comfort of knowing he was in a relationship. When Cara's niece needed more than she can currently offer so she decides to sell her car to support her niece aspiration to become an olympic swimmer.
Now, they are seeing each other more than ever when Cara finds out Nathan is her nieces new coach and she doesn't want to open to him. But she is hiding a big secret from him and that is the reason she couldn't leave with him to college.

Cara is a 31 year old college student and has no interest in finding a man. I can relate to her but her story still did not catch my interest .

“Starting Over” started out so well. I loved the main character, Cara. I wanted to walk more of her journey- present and past. The last 3/4 of the book felt abrupt and rushed. I was left disappointed and wanting more.
