Many thanks to Net Galley and Random House Publishing/Dell/Ballantine for gifting me a digital copy of the new book by Eva Carter - 4.5 stars rounded up!
Gemma thought her life was totally on track until her beloved husband died. Since then, she's been floundering. Her rescue dog, Bear, and her volunteer work at the hospital have kept her moving along with still-hopeful plans of fulfilling one of their dreams. Dan is a confirmed commitment-phone forced to become a dad when his estranged daughter, Casey, comes back into his life after 12 years. Casey has a brain tumor and needs to have treatment at a local hospital. But fate brings this trio together - can they get beyond their pasts to move forward?
Okay, it may be predictable but as in Casey's words, it gave me all the feels. This is definitely a sweet story of second chances all around and moving forward from trauma and grief. Told from the POV of all three of these characters, you got a chance to see what each one was thinking as these relationships come together. I especially loved Casey, so excited to finally meet her dad, trying to still take care of her mom, and yet become her own person in the shadow of illness. I was a big fan of Carter's first book and loved this one too!
