As I began to read, I wasn't too sure if I was going to be immersed in the story. It did take awhile for me to like the characters, but in the end I did. I felt Emily's heartbreak and sadness with her breakup with Max. I thought it was odd that Jake and her were already in a relationship by the next chapter- I wanted to see how their relationship evolved. Some of the situations were predictable- fear of getting into a new relationship to have it end, realizing the mistake of breaking up and putting yourself in innocent situations that others might not perceive as such. Emily was so frustrating at times ugh I wanted to shake her for her indecisiveness and reluctance to let Max go once and for all and finally accept Jake's love! And let's not forget Jake's childish behavior- dude you're a respected  cardiac surgeon learn how to express your feelings better and stop pouting like a baby!! As the story progressed, I liked it more.  I felt great for Emily going to do things she loved- teaching and exploring international cuisine. I liked Jake's family's continued acceptance of Emily even after their separation. I liked how after they had been separated both Emily and Jake were more forthcoming with their feelings and emotions it showed great growth of character. In the end I quite enjoyed the story and will read Jake's story and of course Max and Jane's story.
