The last one is silly and obviously metaphorical, but her aunt always told her that you needed at least one big dream to keep going. And for the last year, that plan has gone off without a hitch.

The love part is hard because she doesn't want to get too close to anyone--she isn't sure her heart can take it.And then she finds a strange man standing in the kitchen of her late aunt's apartment. A man with kind eyes and a Southern drawl and a taste for lemon pies. The kind of man that, before it all, she would've fallen head-over-heels for. And she might again.Except, he exists in the past. Seven years ago, to be exact. And she, quite literally, lives seven years in his future.Her aunt always said the apartment was a pinch in time, a place where moments blended together like watercolors. And Clementine knows that if she lets her heart fall, she'll be doomed.After all, love is never a matter of time--but a matter of timing.

This book was so very comforting. Like a hug for your soul that makes you let go of all your fears for a second. A beautiful storyline that made me cry a litte and smile to myself a whole lot.
I can tell that there‘s a lot of love in this book, or rather in the process of writing this book. It just didn‘t really speak to me so I doubt that the story of Clementine and Iwan will stick with me.
A lovely book. I loved the story of Lemon and Iwan and I really appreciate it that the author put other topics like grief and finding yourself in it. The read was definitely worth it.
I had high expectations for this book and what can I say? I absolutely loved it. Everytime I thought I knew what was going to happen the story took a quick little turn and suprised me. I really adored the relationship and enjoyed the mix of deep topics and light romance.
He made me fall in love with lemon pie and i HATE lemon pie!
