Publisher's summary

I fell in love with Penny as soon as she fell into my arms. I wasn’t a believer in fate, but she convinced me. And every day she convinced me just how special our relationship was. It was us against the world. And I foolishly thought our love was indestructible.

Now I know that love isn’t about light and darkness or whirlwinds of color. Love can’t be defined in such simple terms. When you lose it, all of that becomes clear.

I don’t know how much longer I can breathe in a world where I look into my wife’s eyes and only see a stranger. I’d do anything to get her back. But this is one thing I don’t know how to fix.

This is the end to our love story. I just hope to God it’s not the end of us.

Love love love it

I love this whole series! I didn’t put it down until I finish it. I love their story, yes this book may through flashbacks from
Other books, but it goes smooth with the story. It gave me tears, and laughers. I just loved this series from beginning to end.

A Fantastic Conclusion

This was a wonderful conclusion to a great series. I’m sad that James and Penny’s story is over for now.

Meghan Crawford did a great job with her performance for this book. The only thing I wish was that there was a male performance for the POV of James. Sometimes, it was easy to forget who was supposed to be “telling the story” during each chapter. This is just a minor thing because it doesn’t take away the great performance of Meghan.

I cannot wait for the rest of Ivy’s books to be out on Audible.

Good but occasionally frustrating

I could’ve done without the repetition of the scenes from the book temptation Word for Word and and even the book reading to scar could have beg been condensed a bit more. 1 negative thing about the lead character is her constant internal dialogue of self doubt or misreading so many situations. It became pretty frustrating! Otherwise I loved James and Robs characters a lot.

It could have been better without the repetition

I feel like the repetition from 1st and 2nd book was boring and confusing to listen to. I feel like it could have been written out better without the constant copy and paste dialogue. Otherwise I enjoyed the series mainly the first 5 books. I’m a bit disappointed with last book since I spent $60 to buy all the credits.

Don't waste your money or credit

I think this is only the 2nd time I have given this low of a rating and I read/listen to a lot. The book is mostly a replay of the first 2 books and even a long section of her reading another book to her kid. Between that there is a continuation from the previous book of self absorbed thoughts leading to ridiculous drama. This is the unhealthiest relationship ever since they can't go 5 minutes without doubting everything if they aren't getting constant affirmation, seek counseling.

Disappointed

I enjoyed this series, but this last book was not like the others. There was way too much copied and pasted from the other books. Felt like there was lack of ideas for this last one that all of the memories were used as fillers.
