It ends with us

By Colleen Hoover

Lily hasn’t always had it easy, but that’s never stopped her from working hard for the life she wants. She’s come a long way from the small town where she grew up—she graduated from college, moved to Boston, and started her own business. And when she feels a spark with a gorgeous neurosurgeon named Ryle Kincaid, everything in Lily’s life seems too good to be true.

Ryle is assertive, stubborn, maybe even a little arrogant. He’s also sensitive, brilliant, and has a total soft spot for Lily. And the way he looks in scrubs certainly doesn’t hurt. Lily can’t get him out of her head. But Ryle’s complete aversion to relationships is disturbing. Even as Lily finds herself becoming the exception to his “no dating” rule, she can’t help but wonder what made him that way in the first place.

As questions about her new relationship overwhelm her, so do thoughts of Atlas Corrigan—her first love and a link to the past she left behind. He was her kindred spirit, her protector. When Atlas suddenly reappears, everything Lily has built with Ryle is threatened.

***Spoilers***

I liked that idea, I didn't really like the writing. Plus some of the things were a little bit unbelievable. They are all successful at the start of their careers? Especially a flower shop? Both her and Atlas have rich people working for them just for fun? For me, the Atlas story was really not needed (Him being back in her life). Could have been more focused on her relationship with Ryle and her parents' marriage. I feel like it didn't really dive into the trauma enough. Somehow the book felt too long yet not enough 😔

PS:

Why do female leads keep getting surprised that they are pregnant after taking no precautions?!?
