June was a bit light for me in terms of books read. I picked this one up for something light and fluffy, and it… did not deliver in that respect.
Laurie had one of those love-at-first-sight moments that everyone dreams of, but it happened right as her bus pulled away. She spends the next few months trying to track down the mystery man with her best friend Sarah- only to have Sarah introduce her to Jack (her new boyfriend who IS the mystery man.)
Over the course of years, love and heartbreak abound for Jack, Laurie, and Sarah. I really liked this because the standard trope of love breaking up friends was really explored and felt genuine- and Laurie and Sarah are able to end up in a healthy place as friends.
If anything, I can’t help but wonder if those two were the real love story in this book. Best friends are the epitome of true love (and I have two!) So not a super light book, but definitely an overall sweet read.
