Love The One You're With
by
Emily Giffin

 

In a nutshell:
Ellen just married Andy, her best friends rich brother, and are living the perfect life in New York City. On a normal morning while walking to work, Ellen passes Leo on the street.  Leo, her first love, the one who broke her heart, the one who will always hold a place in her heart.  A few minutes later, her cell phone rings, it's Leo...."Was that really you?" he asks?

One thing leads to another and before she knows it, Ellen is questioning her perfect marriage to Andy and if Leo was "the one" who got away.  Ellen is torn between two men and a big decision!

 

My Viewpoint!
I read alot and it's been a while since a book has gotten me right from the beginning and sucked me in. I could not set down Love The One You're With by Emily Giffin.  I really connected with the writing and while I napped yesterday afternoon had a dream about it!  The beginning, middle and end are perfect. 

I hate giving away plots or important parts in books because I really want the reader to enjoy it without knowing what is to come.

This is a great summer read that you won't be able to put down!

I love it when I find a good book and get lost in it.
Doesn't happen very often. :) I hope you enjoy it!
