Liz is so on point with this book it is scary!I am so happy to have been given the chance to read this book. The story between Julie and Evan is full of emotional intrigue. The back ground story of these people are "Real life" situations that may have happened to you, people you know or even people you love!  The ability to write about some of the subjects in this book and to give the characters (people) fears and frustrations, ups and downs in their life is a talent I have not seen in any other author before. You, LIZ CROWE, have wrote passages here with clarity and class and justice to subjects often not wrote about!Ok, now the back story with Evan is an eye opener. When I have read about Evan in prior books I thought him to be a shy person but was always intrigued by him. I really was changed after reading about his family life, tragedy with his twin, college years and life with Julie. He is a compelling man and that I was able given a chance in seeing the inside to his story is heart breaking but I found myself in rooted in cheering him on.Julie, where to begin, I don't really remember much about Julie in the prior books but that she was friends with Sara and Evans wife... They had some past issues!  I really got a sense of Julie and her past with this book. What a teen tragedy can make a person do, how they handle certain situations, why they are who they become as adults... Guarded and gruff. Julie was amazing to read and grow with, heart breaking to learn her back ground, yet most every person knows a "Julie" I believe! By the time this book ended, the Julie we first meet is a different person... That's all I will say about that!The way Evan and Julie come together at Thanksgiving and finally in Miami is epic... Thrilling and a hold your breath read faster kind of moment.Watching these two people change on their journey is "real". People have these issues, problems, SEX and how it was handled is life altering!At the end you see family, friends, excitement and something else has happened that Liz hints to but doesn't reveal... Cliff hanger UGGGHHH!  Someone is missing in the last celebration and I think I know, totally unsure I read it right and wonder how we go from here.All I can say is that this book is passionately written from the author and it shows!  Hard to break it down and not give spoilers so I do hope I have given you enough that you will "trust me" and read this yourself. It is set to be a stand alone but if you have read the Stewart Realty series it will emphasize a huge eye opening story... An ohhhhh I had no idea kind of moment!Happy readings!
