Synopsis:
One universe, nine planets, 204 countries, 809 islands and 7 seas, and I had the privilege of meeting you.” –Unknown
When Tessa Talman meets Simon Fremont for the first time, not only is she attracted to him, she’s intrigued by how different their lives are. He’s a dedicated scientist, practical, pragmatic, and grounded—while she’s a head-in-the-clouds romance author. As their relationship grows, they agree to meet in places around the world, while continuing to live on opposite sides of the globe.
Though their feelings for each other deepen, their priorities remain the same. Simon is in a hurry to be financially sound and settle down, but Tessa is enjoying her freedom and newfound success. Neither is willing to give in, but as each goodbye gets harder, Tessa begins to wonder whether fame is the path to happiness, or if she has everything she needs in Simon.
Just as Tessa finds the courage to go after her own happily ever after, the unthinkable happens, separating them in ways they never imagined.
To move forward, she must let go of the past, and determine once and for all if love is truly more powerful than the pain of goodbye.

TRAILER
EXCERPT
“Simon ran out of the plane, confused and mad as hell. He should have made conversation, said something, asked for her number. He didn’t even know what she was going to be doing in New York.
Talk about playing it cool. He had gone overboard and was kicking himself for it. It’s not like he hadn’t had plenty of opportunity. Back at O’Hare, he’d noticed her as soon as she got to the gate. OF course, extremely punctual as he was, he’d been sitting for a while, zoned out on Spotify and a copy of Newsweek. He’d heard her first - apologizing to strangers she had just whacked with a long cylindrical object slung across her shoulder. She sat right next to the counter, and there’d been a seat open right across from her. Slowly, he’d found his way to the open seat, smitten by her looks alone. When she hadn’t been sipping coffee or checking her phone, she’d had her nose buried in a book. Simon had been on overload, his mind taking him places no one should visit in the middle of the day.

Having read books by Christine Brae before I was prepared for this one to be an emotional read and I was just hoping I wouldn't need tissues. Simon and Tessa are opposites. Tessa is a famous writer who travels a lot. Simon is a scientist. By chance or fate they meet on a plane. There's a connection there. I liked Simon. He's sexy, smart, and persistent. Tessa is a free spirit and not ready for what comes next. They meet up in different places throughout the story. Each goodbye gets harder for them and while reading each goodbye pulled tighter on my heart strings. I was so rooting for these two. This is a must read!
