Great story telling and oh the heart full of emotions.

Luke and Elena were connected by one truth... 9/11 tragically stole their mothers from them. Although Luke and Elena never met, their mothers worked for the same business that was housed in one of the Towers that fell that day. The guilt of teenage angst kept Elena's broken heart from recovering from the loss of her mother.
This story had me in tears over and over. September 11 th stole our innocence and our sense of safe haven. We changed as the stories surrounding that day unfolded. We found a way to go on, but, like Elena, many people were living with patches over wounds that could not bear heavy scrutiny.
I found Ms. Blount's writing compassionate, and revealing. This is not a cliffhanger and I recommend this romance.

I loved this story. Bringing you back to the great 2001 tragedy of loss and ill feelings to finding forgiveness and love was extremely worth reading again.

Beautiful
This was a great story. I love how they showed what some of the children and families of those lost in 9-11. Elena was the youngest of the girls and always felt it was her fault her mom died. She finally was in New York to help her sister Kara before the baby came. Lucas volunteers with the program that does gatherings for surviving families. Little did they know he met her briefly when they were younger. Have a tissue ready.

A beautifully written and touching story.
Two people connected in more ways than they thought. Both lost their mothers in the 9-11 World Trade Center attack. The memories still haunt them.
Elena Larsen hasn’t stepped foot in New York since the day she left. She has finally come back to the city to help her pregnant sister. She doesn’t expect to meet a man the first day she is there. He is strangely familiar to her, but she knows she has never met him before.
Lucas Adair is the kind of man who will do anything for anyone, even giving his gloves to a stranger on the street. So, when he sees a lady being knocked down by someone else, he is right there to help her up. After she leaves, he knows he has to see her again.
Fate works in strange ways as they end up volunteering together and become friends. Will Luke ever be able to get Elena to leave her worries behind in order to move on with the future? The signs are everywhere that they should be together.
I really enjoyed everything about this book. It was my favorite of the series.

Not worth reading. Could have charming, fun but couldn't avoid unnecessary character(s). Virtue signaling ++.
