Ask Again, Yes by Mary Beth Keane
4.0

This is the story of two young people raised side by side by very different families until one night when tragedy splits them apart. Years later they find their way back to each other but can their families forget the past?

I was tempted to give this only 3 stars when I first finished it as I was waiting for some big event from the past to be revealed but then then I found myself still thinking about it and that actually the message of the book was that things that seem so important at the time will all fade to insignificance in time and I loved that...

“All the things that had happened in their lives had not hurt them in any essential way, despite what they may have believed at times”
