In this book, you have Hope and Cameron's story of lost love. We first met Hope in the short story 'Hope'. She reads Emma's version of 'Our Story' and it lights a fire in her to fight for her true love... Cameron. The problem? Things aren't that simple. Their story starts in high school with a promise, but ends in heartbreak when Cameron moves on during college to fill the void of Hope's absence. Time nor distance does anything to lessen their love for each other, but they have a hard time getting on the same page. A love like theirs.... It's meant to last... A lifetime.Seriously?!? Who knew that Morgan Parker had that in him! I stopped highlighting sappy quotes when I realized I was highlighting almost every page. One of my favorites? "The fact is, when I look into your eyes, and you allow me to see your heart? That's perfection".I think we all live with 'what ifs'. You get comfortable in your situation and before you know it, you are so far from where you want to be. How will you ever know if you don't go for it? Cameron uses his last sick day to go after his one true love... his soul mate. He knows that it'll probably cost him his job, but to him, the end result is worth so much more.The Epilogue. Ugh! I had tears in my eyes. One of Hope's quotes is about not fighting for love because it's like forcing a square peg in a round hole. After reading the epilogue, you'll see that, when you meet 'the one'... They will be worth the fight.This book is so well written that you'll have to force yourself to put it down so you can participate in real life. It has a clear message that speaks directly to your heart. You can ignore it, or do what Cameron did.... put it all on the line for the reward of your life
