Anna joined the huddle, while Keith sat next to me. Dressed in black, Anna already looked as though she’d come from a funeral. Waiting is always the worst part of a crisis like this, and I’ve come to despise hospitals for this very reason. Nothing is happening, yet the mind whirls with ever darkening images, subconsciously ...preparing for the worst.

I loved this book. Such an unexpected ending . I found myself tearing up, it has so much meaning and love. The everyday lives of people do get in the way and it just shows that we all need to remember that feeling of love when we first met out significant other. It's never to late to embrace each others love.Write Review:
