Eric wants to move on from his past, but obstacles outside of his control prevent him from doing so. He wants to love again and tries hard to show Lauren how he really feels. He has such a genuine heart and always tried to do what is best for everyone around him.
This book is told in dual POV so you get to see the inner thinking of both main characters. The secondary characters are some of my favorites. They have some of the wittiest comebacks. I wish I could be as creative as Emily. She has some of the best sayings of any character I have ever read. I absolutely cannot wait to read her book.
