"What I love most about this author is his ability to tell the quiet stories, the ones that might go unnoticed, the tales of ordinary people. He champions them, bringing them to vivid life and makes them shine. His characters are immensely relatable, each distinct and well drawn. The reader is taken behind the closed doors and into their homes and minds, and discovers that they aren't ordinary at all. 

    There is a subtle power in this story that goes beyond the first love which threads its way through it, as it deals with second chances in more ways than one. 

      R. J. Gould is one of my favourite authors and I'm already looking forward to his next book."
