Thoughts: The book began 4 years in the past to give you the back story of Laney and Jake. Once their story for that time span was told the book jumped to the present picking up where their lives are now.

This is a love story that began 4 years ago went on hiatus and when both Jake and Laney were in the same town again they felt that pull towards each other was still there.
Laney was dealing with personal issues while Jake was dealing with a death in the family. You were left feeling emotionally drained going through the emotional journey with both Laney and Jake as they discovered their true path.
