The opening chapter sets the scene where Sam and Emma are with her parents enjoying a meal in a restaurant, then she gets the call that her missing – presumed dead – husband is actually alive. Emotions run all through this novel but I didn’t always feel emotional myself as it was quite clear for me what Emma needed to do and it frustrated me sometimes when she wasn’t thinking along my lines. There is much to love in this novel and I highlighted so many quotes hitting home, yet I still didn’t fall in love with it. If I’d watch it first then I wouldn’t make it a priority to read it and who knows in what year, if any, I’d get to it then. I bought an ecopy of it in 2017, long before she became even more of a bestselling writer with the hyped novel of The Seven Husband of Evelyn Hugo and Daisy Jones & The Six and I picked it up ‘now’ because I wanted to read it before watching the movie adaptation of this novel.
But who is her one true love? What does it mean to love truly?Īnother novel from my backlist as One True Loves was published in 2016.
