I enjoyed this one. The characters were well written, and I loved the fact that you got to experience multiple points of view. Warning that there are moments of heartbreak that will tear you up, but it was a good experience. It was a unique book that delved into love and it's meaning. I will be recommending this one to others. I also look forward to reading more from this author.

Thank you Net Galley ARC

This was such an interesting read and has a womens fiction vibe to it. The premise of the book was fascinating and heartbreaking for all the characters.

I loved getting the multiple POVs and the podcast notes gave it a richer feel.

This story has so much heartache that could have been avoided with a single conversation but the repercussions cause an exploration of the real meaning of love and relationships.
