A sweet story about friendship and love. Laurie (implausibly) falls hopelessly in love with a stranger she sees at a bus stop. Even more implausible, she finally meets her dream man when her best friend introduces him as her new boyfriend. As unrealistic as the whole story is, it held my attention and kept me hooked to see how it would all (predictably) unravel. I liked Laurie, Sarah, and Jack. But I also felt equally irritated by their bad decisions and lack of ability to properly communicate! Ultimately, that’s life though, right? I struggled with the rating for this book. I did enjoy it a lot, even in its flaws. (It’s a nice escape.) But the main reason I couldn’t give it a full 4+⭐️ is because after ALL the waiting we did, we only got about 5-10 pages of bliss at the end. Not even an epilogue. In a 400 page book, that just isn’t enough satisfaction for me.
