The Morning Afteris definitely suitable for a Lifetime movie. It has that will they, won't they drama that's patented on Lifetime. This is one of the few romance novels that take its cue firmly in the present day.This novella definitely takes place in the present day. I recently joined twitter. Ethan and Cara trending and having their own hashtag added to the appeal of this novel. But in ten years will that aspect make this novel dated.This isn't one of those all-consuming romantic love stories. It's a love story, about two lifelong friends developing into something more. Where people are consumed with that epic Romeo and Juliet it's nice to read about the simple love story Sally Clements has crafted in this novella.I've read more romance novel this year. The things they all have had in common are their blurbs. They made me want to read them. `One photo changes everything...' it drew me in from the start.It's a short read that can be finished in one sitting. It surprised me at how quickly I finished. Actually I would consider it a novella more than a novel.I giveThe Morning After3 out 5.
