Review

Two main characters met on a train and immediately engaged in endless dialogue. A bit too descriptive, the dialogue also didn’t feel natural. The book felt very long. I believe this story has potential but the writing style killed it. It was just written in kind of a boring way.

❝ Life doesn’t happen someplace in the future. You said that. You said life happens here and now, and it’s a fool’s bargain to let something good go now in the hope of something better at a later date.❞

❝ Nothing is always. Nothing in the universe is always.❞

❝ You know where the real prison is? It’s in your mind. It’s in your head.❞

A romantic, vivid novel that takes place in the tender time of a young woman’s life: Heather has graduated from college and is traveling around Europe with her two best friends. She’s left school responsibility behind and adult responsibility is looming, but this is her one, one last summer to be free. Heather doesn’t expect to even meet Jack, let alone fall in love with him. Jack is an enigmatic Vermonter a few years older than she is, who is following his grandfather’s journal to various cities around Europe. But in the same way that forces are bringing Jack and Heather together, life and duty are pushing them apart. And Jack has a secret that is going to change absolutely everything.
