De: Rae Knight

Narrado por: Ella Lance

When loss happens and grief holds you hostage, is there ever an escape? Can one person really be the answer to all your prayers and the balm to all the open wounds on your heart?

Elizabeth Wallace has always been a punk rock kind of gal, yet in high school she nabbed the golden boy and jock, Lyle Foster. These high school sweethearts, happily in love, moved away from their small town and raised two beautiful children. But on one forsaken evening, Lyle loses his life in his sleep to a heart attack. Now, Liz is forced to pick up the broken pieces of herself and her children, moving them back to the one town she thought she would never return to; Willow Brook. Now back on her family farm with her sister, she must navigate through her grief while trying to raise her children. But, what will she do when her childhood best friend, Brian, shows back up in her life? Can she heal from her wounds and move on, or will they hold her back forever?

Lizzie. Brian. Lyle.

I read this book a year or so ago. And I rated it very emotionally. At the time something similar happened to someone I knew. Although I still feel similar to the fact of Lizzie and Brian being together so soon after Lyle passes. I understand more now why they were able to do so. The love Lizzie has/had for Brian has always been bigger than life. And when she met Lyle she made space to love him too. And not in a way that made Lyle second place. In a way that made Lyle just as valued and important. Both men loved her so deeply and completely she didn’t know how to show them the same love and respect without feeling she was hurting the other.

It’s a beautifully written story about second chances, trauma, mending, mental health and raising babies.
