This book was very well received by my monthly book club, we rated it 8 stars. I found it very easy to connect with the character of harold, and felt like I was tagging along with him on his journey. I loved the twists and turns of his relationship with his wife and son, and I also found myself filling up at parts if the book. It wasnt just a physical journey harold found himself on, but also an inner journey of looking back over his past. I also loved the ending, which I was surprised about as it's not a book I would have found myself reading by my own choice, and I will now go on to read the next hook by Rachel Joyce.

3.5 stars...I think, mainly because of the cliff-hanger ending.

Can I firstly say I love Cole. He's amazingly...amazing and so sweet, and so in love with Blake...awww!
Though I have to say I figured out that he was the boy, Nathan, from the start when it mentioned he had green eyes

>The storyline was intriguing and with the on again/off again relationship that Cole and Blake had going on I was hooked from early on.

I will have to read the second book in the series to figure out how it concludes after the cliff-hanger ending, though with how many books I have on my to-read, it may take a while to get around to it.

3.5 stars.

I liked reading about their dancing and how their relationship started with a spark from how well they worked together. Of course, it wasn't always smooth sailing as Natalia found Samson to be an arrogant ass and tried to have as little contact with him as possible while he wanted to get to know her.

I cant decide if I liked Kingsley. Sometimes she came across as a bit of a b*tch and other times she was cool and there for Natalia when she needed her. Wren sounds like my sort of guy, looks wise, no preppy clothes for him.

As for the change in POV from chapter to chapter, I'm more of a one POV fan.

I enjoyed this...

It just drove me a little mad at the same time. I mean how pig headedly oblivious can you be to the glaringly obvious, Becca? It was pretty obvious that he wanted you to be his from early on but you were so intent on not wanting to be anywhere near him, or talking to him or just anything relating to him. You drove me insane throughout the book so by the time you finally realised your feelings around the 92% mark I was cheering along with all your friends in the epilogue because FINALLY!!!

I've just seen an advert for a second book Four Years Later and I am very intrigued about reading more about their relationship.
