What if you had a second chance at first love?
Susannah and Rob were childhood sweethearts. But as with most early love affairs, they broke up, moved on and now find themselves in very different places.
And not entirely happy - who is?
A chance meeting between them sends shockwaves through their lives. What happens when your first love makes a surprise reappearance? Is fate telling you it's time for a second chance . . . or should you simply walk away and let the past become ancient history?
But Susannah and Rob just aren't able to forget the way they were . . . and the world is about to discover the consequences of their reunion.
Rating: 4 Stars
Positives: I loved the backstory between Rob and Susannah and seeing how they struggle with their relationship as adults. The way the tension is built between the two of them once they resume contact with one another is spot on. For we all know Rob can't keep that kiss between friends.
Negatives: The side plot of the story with Amelia and her battle with cancer doesn't really go anywhere and isn't explored at all.
Would I recommend it? Yes I would. The Way We Were is a lovely read about whether or not regaining contact with a first love is a good idea.
