This is an amazingly emotional and well-crafted book that unravelled it’s secrets slowly and expertly. I loved Anna and Gabe and rooted for them from the beginning all the while wondering what terrible secret Anna was hiding from him. My heart went out to this brave, strong girl who developed into a brave, strong woman scared to trust because of her horrific past. An intriguing heart-rending story. Highly recommended.

This is truly a heart touching book and slow-burn romance. The characters have poignant back stories. I liked the character of Anna and Gabe too. Gabe’s family is so good.

Anna was living with her mother until the unthinkable happened and she thought that she lost her mother but one day she receives a call from her and it turns her world upside down. While She met Gabe as they were grouped to work together for the next two semesters. Gabe is patient, considerate and he is passionate about his work. He has such a warm and kind family. They welcomed Anna and made her feel like home. While Anna has a mother and a past she tried to escape. What if they both are harbouring secret that can break or make their world?

Thank you Author, Publisher and Netgalley

I have to start with the cover because that's what drew me in initially, it's absolutely stunning! I was ready to read this book before I even checked out the blurb.

"It All Comes Back To You" took my emotions on a rollercoaster ride, it was both heart-warming and heart-breaking.

The characters in this book are so well-developed, each one is brought to life with such depth and authenticity I found myself immersed in the story and emotionally invested in their journeys. Their struggles, fears and triumphs really resonated with me making this an unputdownable read.

I would definitely recommend adding this book to your TBR.

Thank you Melissa Wiesner, Net Galley and Bookouture for providing me with an ARC of this book.

A very emotional story that will rip your heart.
I was so engrossed in the book where I was not aware until the story end.

It All Comes Back to You is a heart shattering story. It includes homelessness, abuse, broken families, romance, and loss all with a happy ending. The main character Anna has gone through a tremendous amount at a young age and I absolutely loved her character and the amount of resilience she had. Even though our other main character, Gabe, has been hiding a secret from Anna, he always has her best interest in mind. I love how his entire family opened their hearts and home to Anna and I enjoyed seeing their relationships blossom as Anna starts to overcome some of her traumas. Keep your tissues close for this one. Easily one of the best books I've read this year.

Thanks to Netgalley and Bookouture for a digital ARC.

The book starts at the present day when Anna Campbell decides to finally go back home to Pittsburgh. It’s been 4 years since she’s seen Gabe and over a decade since their story started.

Jumping back to 15 years ago.

Anna is not your normal typical teenager. At 16 years old she’s been living on her own for two years, she has a job and attends not only high school but also college classes as well.

Gabe, all the girls want him and everyone knows him. Like most college boys trying to experience the whole vibe of college life.  Gabe’s academics are still very important to him. Not only is he shocked about being partnered up with Anna for a project. But finding out she’s a very bright high schooler too really spins his head.

Over the years, Anne has always seen Gabe and she knows him better than anyone else. At times better than he knows himself. Sunday dinners are important to his family that slowly become a new tradition for Anne too.

As the book goes through all the loss, heat break, and soul searching. It takes us on a beautiful crazy ride that you won’t be able to stop turning the pages.

I loved Anne, Gabe, and his whole family! I seriously wish the book wasn’t over because I’m not ready to leave their story. I hope there can be a part two.

Thank you, Melissa Wiesner and Bookouture, for the EARC! As always, my review is my opinion and thoughts. This review will be shared on my Instagram (Alexandriavwilliams_) and blog https://www.sidekickstyles.com/blogs/lit-sidekick-chronicles-adventures-in-bookish-bliss shortly.

This was a very heartwarming story of a college boy and a teenage HS girl taking college classes. Gabe helps her through some trauma growing up which continues to adulthood. Anna gets taken in and loved by Gabe's entire family, in turn showing her what a healthy childhood/adult hood entails. Years later, they are still connected as Anna looks for her mother. Very loving story but also has sad aspects.
