Summary

An overworked book publicist with a perfectly planned future hits a snag when she falls in love with her temporary roommate…only to discover he lives seven years in the past, in this witty and wise novel from the bestselling author of The Dead Romantics.

Sometimes, the worst day of your life happens, and you have to figure out how to live after it.

Six months ago, Clementine West had the worst day of her life. So, she came up with a plan to keep her heart safe: stay busy, work hard, take no risks. And it’s been working.

That is until one day she finds a strange man standing in her kitchen. A man with kind eyes, a crooked smile, and a recipe for the perfect lemon meringue pie. The kind of man that, before everything, she could have fallen for...

He’s perfect but for one thing: he lives in the past. Seven years ago, to be exact.

This should be impossible, but Clementine used to love impossible things. And maybe, just maybe, she will again.

After all, love is never a matter of time – but a matter of timing.

A magical romance

I honestly didn't really know what this book was about and I've loved every minute of it.

Umm not sure

It had an interesting premise, but I sadly didn't gel with the story. I will still try more Ashley Poston's boos in the future.

Predictable and grating

A dull and predictable romance with characters so thin they’d blow away like a puff of smoke. Would have been great if the narrator could have been bothered to learn how to pronounce Iwan correctly

Not worth it.

It's just a run of the mill romcom nothing particularly special. I gave it a low score because everything just happens too smoothly. The female lead, wraps her head around the 7 year difference rather quickly and the two leads get along too well too quickly, which is surprising because she went from assuming he was a murderer to "I want to stay with him" in the span of a conversation. The male lead has no qualms about her initial reaction to him and immediately gives her the nickname lemon and uses it constantly... All romcoms are pretty much predictable but this was so formulaic and forced I was rolling my eyes.

I enjoyed her other book dead romantics and that was as predictable as they come but it was charming and the characters were convincing and at times funny and cute. This book had none of that.
