Thank you to Netgalley and Bold Strokes Books for a copy of the book.
Ruth was raised by her aunt in a small village since her parent's deaths. She tried to make a go of life in the city, but returns to the village as it's not really working out for her.
Ollie reluctantly goes to help her sister look after their dying father, who Ollie has a tricky relationship with.
Ruth and Ollie met online and have been messaging every since. They're surprised when they bump into each other in the village.
This is a book that deals with many complicated family issues in an excellent way. This is the third of Hale's Truly series and her writing has improved immensely with each book. Looking forward to more of her work in the future.
