Seller Description
Macy Sorensen is settling into an ambitious if emotionally tepid routine: work hard as a new pediatrics resident, plan her wedding to an older, financially secure man, keep her head down and heart tucked away. But when she runs into Elliot Petropoulos—the first and only love of her life—the careful bubble she's constructed begins to dissolve. Once upon a time, Elliot was Macy's entire world- growing from her gangly, bookish friend into the man who coaxed her heart open again... only to break it on the very night he declared his love for her. Told in alternating time lines between then and now, teenage Elliot and Macy grow from friends to much more-spending weekends and lazy summers together in a house outside San Francisco devouring books, sharing favorite words, and talking through their growing pains and triumphs. As adults, they have become strangers to one another until their chance reunion. Although their memories are obscured by the agony of what happened that night so many years ago, Elliot will come to understand the truth behind Macy's decade-long silence, and will have to overcome the past and himself to revive her faith in the possibility of an all-consuming love.

What readers are saying about this book
Summarized by Pango AI
PangoBooks readers generally have strong positive feelings about this book, with many praising the childhood friends-to-lovers trope and the emotional depth it captures. The dual timelines between past and present help readers fully grasp the characters’ relationship development, though some found the back-and-forth a bit much. Elliot, one of the main characters, is often singled out as an exemplary "book boyfriend," and the romance between him and Macy is described as sweet, heartfelt, and sometimes tear-jerking. While some readers felt the book didn't live up to the hype or struggled to connect with it, the majority found it captivating, emotional, and beautifully written. Overall, it’s highly recommended for fans of romance, particularly those who enjoy stories of second chances and deep emotional connections.
