This book devastated me in the prologue alone! It is a heartbreaking, beautiful book with amazing writing, excellent characters and a plot that just captured me throughout the pages.
I loved the ending! Dani Atkins never fails to write extraordinarily human, flawed, gorgeous characters and emotions so so well!

Getting married to Adam was the best thing Lily could of done, but back then her best friend Josh walked away from her and never looked back. Unfortunately for Lily, Adam is gravely ill and in his final hours he asks Lily to go and find Josh. But that is the last thing Lily is thinking about right now. After she pulls herself together and decides to honour Adam's wish, trying to find Josh is harder than she thought, when she eventually tracks him down he is none to pleased to see her, so many things went wrong back then, feelings were not admitted back then and how can they both ever recover? I have not read many of Dani's books, there are some sensitive subjects touched on in this book, some may be too close to home for people to read about, relatable characters and a warmth reading this book. There are plenty of twists and turns and flitting back to the past and the future but it made for such a good read.

The prologue instantly hooked me and then promptly wrecked me. Told from alternating timelines, Always You and Me is a heartbreakingly beautiful story of love through different life stages and circumstances with added elements of complicated friendship, loss, navigating grief, and healing broken relationships . The storytelling takes you on a rollercoaster of emotions and was hard to put down. Overall a really good read and I will definitely be checking out more books from this author. Thank you to Dani Atkins, Lake Union Publishing, and NetGalley for the ARC in return for my honest review.

I CRIED DURING THE VERY FIRST CHAPTER! I'm a crybaby but that was a record. This is for fans of the stories where there is more than one love in a lifetime. For second chance fans too. I loved it so much. It was honestly a roller coaster of emotions because once second I wanted to cry some more and the next my heart was so warm.

As usual this book by one of my favourite authors, Dani Atkins, did not disappoint. The characters are so likeable and believable that I was literally unable to put the book down.

When faced death of the love of your life and they tell you to seek out the best friend that you had cut out of your heart just before your wedding, would you do that as their dying wish? This is the basis of this heart wrenching and gorgeous story of three souls who enter and leave each other’s lives and leave a lasting impression.

This is a must read and I won’t spoil the plot but would advise lots of tissues.

Beautiful prose, genuine characters and story. Reminiscent of Paige Toon. Perfect for all romance lovers. Thank you NetGalley!

Oh my goodness what a book this is from Danni Atkins who I have followed since reading her first book Fractured in 2013 when I first got my Kindle.

Such a lovely, heartbreaking beautiful read about Lily, Adam and Josh that kept me involved in the storyline all the way, storytelling at its best which I couldn't put down.

Thank you to the author, Netgalley and Lake Union Publishing for this brilliant ARC which I have no hesitation in recommending.
