On her favorite day of the year, Elizabeth Davenport awakens in her cottage on the wild and windy Cornish coast, opens her front door, and discovers a precious gift: the small blue crocus and a note that begins I Wish . . . The notes are never signed, but she knows they’ve been left by her first and truest love, Tom Hale. Each of these precious missives convey a simple wish for something they had missed, and the life they might have shared, if circumstances hadn’t forced them apart all those years ago. She has kept them all.
But on this day, what should have been the fiftieth anniversary of their falling in love, the gift fails to arrive. Could something have happened to Tom? Elizabeth has always been plagued by thoughts of “what if.” Propelled by worry and decades of pent up longing, Elizabeth packs a little suitcase, leaves Porthsennenon, and journeys to London . . . to find the love of her life once again.
Finding him, Elizabeth is faced with the desperate knowledge that any time they might have now is running out. Never before had she thought that she might truly lose time—forever. And now, knowing that life is too short, Elizabeth vows to fulfill as many of Tom’s wishes as she can. Yet she fears that her efforts may expose the shameful secret that, until now, has kept them apart.
Can she continue to hide the truth, or will she have the courage to reveal herself completely and finally make their dreams come true—before it’s too late.
This is a story of a love that was thwarted but endured the test of time. Told in dual timelines (50 years past and the present) mainly through the stubborn eye’s of Elizabeth. Due to a lack of communication, Tom believing he was never worthy, and life getting in the way they were never able to truly be together. and squandered the chances they had. This was truly a wonderful love story that makes you think about what enduring love is really about.
I enjoyed following both Elizabeth and Tom’s characters as their love grew. Both characters were fully developed and solid. Moreover, they were real. You could feel their conflicted love come off the pages.
Overall, this book moved me in all the right ways. It made me think that I should pay attention to those new people who wander into my life, what my current acquaintances hold for me, and that love is will always endure the tests of time.
Thank you NetGalley and WilliamMorrow for this advance reader copy in exchange for my honest review.
