Six months after Wyn broke up with Harry they are stuck pretending to be together for one more weekend. I cannot describe to you how much I hated Wyn at the start of this book. I was slandering his name left and right. I swore I would never forgive him but here I am, with forgiveness in my heart. I don’t know how Emily Henry manages to write such sweet and compelling characters. I experienced every emotion in the book and cried at the weirdest times but this was such an excellent book. The only reason I’m not giving it five stars is because it is slow to start but it picks up really well. I loved this book. It is not surprising for me to love it as much as I did because Emily Henry is my favorite author but I’m always hesitant to start her books thinking it won’t live up to the previous one and then bam!! Super good! Anyway, I highly recommend.
