Özet
'Rixon has done it again. She’s queen of the tragic romance.' – Laura Pearson
***
This is the story of girl meets boy.
And then everything goes wrong . . .
Ever since they first met at university, Beth and Nick have circled in and out of one another's lives: supporting each other through grief, marriage, divorce, career crises and family dramas.
Fourteen years ago, when they were on the cusp of adulthood, they both survived a devastating fire that sent their lives in different directions. And they’ve been running ever since: from the pain, from the memories, and most devastatingly of all, from the guilt.
But no matter how hard they try, there's something else they can't run from. The inescapable, terrifying truth: they’re in love with each other.
But how can they move forward, when neither of them can stop looking back?

Rixon has done it again. She’s queen of the tragic romance. I raced through After the Fire, caring deeply about Beth and Nick and desperate to know how their story would end. Highly recommend. (Laura Pearson)
The concept / trope of a “right person wrong time” is one of my favourites, because I feel like there’s so much potential for yearning, and angst, and drama.
This one had the drama - within the story, especially at the turning point of their relationship, there was a lot happening. And at various points throughout, I was very much bought into what was happening more broadly.
However, and where I struggled to give this more stars, is that I just didn’t get their connection. Even at its initial peak, it was very very new. How did it last the events that unfolded, and the subsequent years that followed. They didn’t spend anywhere near enough time together throughout this book for me to get why they even had feelings for each other to start with.
Love the tropes, struggled with the execution
