Ruthie Henrick delivers the story we all want to read every now and then. The story of love between your Average Joe and your Average Jane. No billionaires, sexy model good looks, just Ben, Allie and Jake.The book flashes back to when Allie and Ben first meet and follows their relationship and marriage. At the beginning we learn that Ben is dead, later finding out he was the victim to a terrible accident. Allie has also learned some bitter truths about Ben and is working towards forgiveness and moving on.Jake on the other hand has been in love with Allie since go. He has stood by her and Ben, choosing to be in her life however he can. Wow, what a wonderful man! I need a Jake in my life, seriously!After Ben's accident, Allie has to determine if she is able to find love a second time. When that second time presents itself, will she be able to take it?I don't want to give any more away than that. I just really want this review to focus on the simplicity, yet beauty, of this wonderful story of second chances. The synopsis above really does give you the information you need to recognize a book that you need to pick up and I promise you won't put it down.Recognize the strength in all the characters, the flaws and imperfections. Only then can you appreciate a beautiful story when its right in front of you.
