Review
Wow!
Let’s just start there. This book was an emotional roller coaster for me...
Natalie
and her 21 year old daughter leave Australia on a trip to New York for a few
weeks. Natalie has been separated from
her husband for 2 years, she is still carrying around a lot of hurt left by her ex-husband, Her hope was to maybe
start new after this trip little does she know how quickly that wish will come
true.
By accident a quick trip out of the freezing rain and into the MOMA Art gallery changes everything…… Natalie and Nick were drawn to each other instantly they had this natural charge that ran thru both of their souls. Their connection was obvious, although their relationship does not come without complications….. both have their own set of insecurities but it is something they are both quickly overcoming ……unfortunately there is never a happy ending when there is a husband in the mix, Natalie still needs that divorce for her happily ever after…….. Natalie receives a phone call that changes everything in an instant. Natalie has to rush home and leave Nick, her soul mate behind. My heart broke absolutely for her. Once she got home and assessed her situation she had plenty of decisions to make, and once again my heart broke……her husband Gabe wanted her back which means she needed to decide between her husband who she would always love and the man who had taught her that she was beautiful and wanted. Eventually the time came and she made the decision to give her old life a second chance, she had a family and a past with her husband, and admittedly he had changed into the man he thought she needed him to be. However that meant more heartbreak for Natalie and for Nick……I’m not sure that I could have been able to make the same choice and even though she moved on with her life with Gabe, Nick was never far from her mind..... Then another chance to see that connection come full circle happens~ How will Natalie react, will things change does she end up with Nick?
The Epilogue crushed my heart and sent me over the edge ... will not give anything away here but it does explain A LOT..... Take time to enjoy this true love story!!

About
The Author
Jani has been
married for a long time to a special man, and her two children and their
partners are the sunshine in her life. She is a voracious reader and would
spend her last dollar on a book - always fascinated that for the mere price of
a book, she can escape her world for a while and see through someone else's
eyes.
Besides reading, her favorite 'thing' is traveling - she has traveled the world, learning about the ways people live and has come to the realization that no matter where we live, we all ultimately want the same things. Her hobby - Scrapbooking - keeps her up till way after midnight and her usual subjects are her family and her travels.
Ever since she can remember, Jani wanted to write stories about people, about their lives and loves. Relationships and Happiness - arguably the most difficult things to master in life and yet exactly what everyone ultimately desires (in her humble opinion).
