I have given it 5 heart warming stars.

I had the pleasure of reading this book when it was called "Bridge Over The Atlantic", now it's been spruced up, had a new name and been given a pretty new cover but do you know what? It's still the same beautifully heartwarming tale of love, loss and friendship.

One of the things that has endeared this story to me is that the events of this books could happen to anyone. It's so real and raw that once again this story reduced me to tears. Big, fat, ugly tears!

I couldn't put it down as Lisa took us on this touching journey of two people finding each other after suffering heartbreak of the worst kind. She has such talent using her words to make the reader feel every single emotion of her characters, rendering you an emotional mess long after you have closed the book.

This is a slow burn romance, there is no instalove to be found here coupled with the scenic backdrop of Scotland makes for a very magical story that you do not want to miss.

Thank you netgalley and the publishers for the review copy. I'm sorry to say that I struggled with this one. The cover and title interested me and reading the blurb it sounded promising. Truth of it was it read like a teen romance book, or even dare I say it a Mills & Boon novel. The writing seemed 'cheesy' and it just wasn't written in a style that I like to read. It's not to say that it isn't a good book, it just wasn't the book for me.

A bittersweet story of love lost and new love found. Both Mallory and Greg have lost their loves due to accidents, and both are grieving and angry. The back and forth of yes and no, should I or shouldn't I, got a bit tiresome, but at the same time made sense. Also, a lot of the song references went over my head, but I guess that was fine. They had a lot to get over, and each did it in a different way on the road to together. A good story and one I highly recommend. Makes me want to head to Scotland.

I did not enjoy this book at all. It read like terrible online fan fiction and the descriptive language felt both repetitive and over the top. Don't waste your time or energy.

I really wanted to enjoy this book, but, I have to say that I'm surprised at the number of great reviews it's got.
I found the writing tedious at times. There were some good and interesting parts, it, just not enough to hold my interest. Sorry!
