This is a short story, but not so short it only takes half an hour to read! I loved the story and the journey it took it's characters on, literally.Isabella is stranded at the airport after returning from Paris, her luggage stolen. Her only chance of getting home is her boyfriend Jamie's brother, Harper.We get a slight hint at the very start that Isabella may have feelings for Harper, but then we are left not knowing what has gone on before. However, during the journey home, we get to know a lot of personal things about them.The journey is quite cathartic for both of them. Being in such close proximity feelings are heightened, and they begin to confide in each other about their pasts. As they talk Isabella begins to realise that the image she had of Harper is based on what people have told her. There is a lot more to him than she first assumes.Isabella and Harper soon discover that going on this journey may well change things for both of them, as well as others.The author manages to keep us guessing a lot in this book, as we are unaware if what has gone on previously between the characters. We learn bits and pieces as the story goes on, which helps explain what we already think we know.All in all a really good story, which is written well. It is a story which anyone from teenagers to adults could enjoy reading, and I definitely recommend it.
