The
#1 New York Times bestselling author of the worldwide phenomenon
Calendar Girl series brings readers a poignant and honest look at life’s most
complicated relationships.
When their mother passed away, Evie Ross and her sister were each given a stack
of letters, one to be opened every year on their birthday; letters their
free-spirited mother hoped would inspire and guide them through adulthood. But
although Evie has made a successful career, her desire for the stability and
security she never had from her parents has meant she’s never experienced the
best life has to offer. But the discovery of more letters hidden in a
safe-deposit box points to secrets her mother held close, and possibly a new
way for Evie to think about her family, her heart and her dreams.

Ruthie – ☆☆☆☆
This is the second book in the series, and I would definitely recommend that
you read them in order. I loved that we got Evie's story, as Suda Kaye starred
in book one and her viewpoints were very different.
As Evie finally has her sister home, she is feeling that life is a little more
settled. Then her all-time crush, Milo, suddenly starts paying her attention
and really, she does not know what to do with it. It is disconcerting, and as
everyone always leaves her, she is not really ready to believe that this could
be real, or permanent.
It was great fun to catch up with everyone from the first book, and to see a
settled, married, successful-business owning Suda Kaye. That she got to double
date with her sister and encourage her to enjoy Milo's attention is a bonus,
but it also brings up a lot of Evie's issues with being abandoned. They both
need to find each other again, and for Evie, she finds that she needs to return
to her grandfather's and regroup. I found it very moving that she has to work
through so many issues that she has just ploughed through for years.
Milo was described with great care in What the Heart Wants, so we know
the basics – and of Evie's unrequited love for him. This time we get her more
sensual descriptions of his silky black hair, his looks, his body, and we also
learn about his past, his heart, and his ex-wife. He is a strong character, but
not overbearing – which works well with Evie's nature, and gives us a sigh of
relief that he is going to be strong for her, but not too strong for her.
The story takes a very interesting turn towards the end, and whilst I guessed
it in part, it definitely means that the next book will be very interesting
indeed!
