For fans of Sarah Dessen and John Green, this is a breathtaking debut about a couple who fall in love...twice. Before: Reena Montero has loved Sawyer LeGrande for as long as she can remember. But he's never noticed that Reena even exists...until one day, impossibly, he does. Reena and Sawyer fall in messy, complicated love. Then Sawyer disappears without a word, leaving a devastated—and pregnant—Reena behind. After: Almost three years have passed, and there's a new love in Reena's life: her daughter. Reena's gotten used to life without Sawyer, but just as suddenly as he disappeared, he turns up again. Reena wants nothing to do with him, though she'd be lying if she said his being back wasn't stirring something in her. After everything that's happened, can Reena really let herself love Sawyer LeGrande again?

Truth time: the only reason I'm reviewing this is because my internal pressure to review every book I read is getting to me.
I don't have much to say about this story. I read it because there were elements of the plot that are a guilty pleasure of mine, and also because I did the one thing they warned you about since childhood. I liked the cover. Oops. Admit it, we all do it.
So here's a quick review, as I am already starting to forget details. I enjoyed the main character, not so much her love interests. I enjoyed the way the chapters alternated between time lines, but sometimes I felt like one storyline would start to drag behind another, struggling to keep up. There were probably way to many things that made me say. “So, um, okay...why?”
Would I go recommending this book? Probably not. It wasn't that complicated of a contemporary. But I still enjoyed it, and if you are looking for a book you don't have to think much about, then look no further.
I was expecting it to be a lot different.
It wasn't very emotional and I didn't fall in love with the characters. Maybe Hannah but all the rest were annoying.
Like all it had was a cute ending.
This book would make a good movie.
