I love a good road trip book, but this duology is so much more. I loved the first book The Edge of Never and this book was just as spectacular and life changing as the first.
This follows after Andrew's surgery and recovery, yes it is very predictable within the summary and knowing that Camryn is pregnant that the tragedy is in fact her losing the baby. As a way to cope, Andrew takes her on another spontaneous road trip after catching her way of coping through high doses of pain pills.
Both books are so centered on personal growth that it's not only an amazing love story but has a lot of life lessons that will make you look at your life so differently...I live close to an airport so this book is not a good influence on me, making me want to just hop on a plane in hopes of meeting an attractive and outgoing guy like Andrew. Totally my new book boyfriend.
In the end though it's just as happy as you expect, they finally get marries buy a house in Reighly and have a baby, named Lily. With no intention of settling down forever they take their adventures with Lily as a todler before she starts school. What I found so adorable was the endings from each characters perspectives, and I don't just mean Camryn's and Andrew's but in the Epilogue 13 years later from Lily.

These books are a must read, and if you don't believe in fate or soul mates then you need to read these books, they will change your mind entirely.

(as much as I'd love to quote every part part of this book, this one's my favourite)

“I really do forget about everything. Because that’s what a moment like this does to you. It makes you feel like something so small inside of something so massive that it’s beyond comprehension. It strips away all of your problems, all of your hardships, all of your worldly needs and wants and desires, forcing you to realize just how insignificant all of it really is. It’s like the Earth becomes completely silent and still, and all that your mind can understand or feel is the vastness of the Universe and you gasp thinking about your place within it. Who needs psychiatrists? Who needs grief counselors and life coaches and motivational speakers? Fuck all that. Just stare at the night sky and let yourself get lost in it every now and then.”
