Meeting one another was not planned. Their relationship was not planned. Their love for one another was not planned, but their attraction to one another keeps them together. With Fallon moving across country, she and Ben keep a long distance relationship that is not typical. No phone calls or emails. Only meet once a year back in the same place they first met. Ben is working on writing a novel, but it was not until Fallon that his novel took off. His history is his connection to Fallon, but her finding out is the breaking point for her. Although he is the reason for her physical scars, can Fallon move on to love Ben when she finds out he caused her pain and suffering, lost of a career, and isolation when she finds his novel hidden?
Oh my goodness ... Once again, I am in awe. Once again, I paced anxiously through the house becoming wrapped up within the story. Reading the events of the story and how they all connected, how Ben and Fallon were connected, I questioned myself if I were in Fallon's position, love the person who caused so much hurt physically and emotionally, even if it were not intended?
I thought it was crazy how Ben and Fallon held onto their promise of meeting in the same place, on the same day once a year, at the same time to be a bit unrealistic. Maybe because I have never had to make or deal with this scenario? As I read the book, I was able to see true emotions, internal chaos in loving someone you could not have. Ben and Fallon learn to fight for themselves and one another in their awkward relationship.
