Rating: 4.5 
 Verdict: Tbh, I wasn't able to read the first book (yep, went straight ahead to read this one). I'm not sure if I missed anything tho (maybe the how they got together in the first place blah blah) because this one includes a prologue. I thought at first that everything between Mia and Jensen's smooth sailing. Jensen went to New York for college, Mia was left behind in Cali. Fine, they can date other people blah blah. Until one day, Jensen told Mia something that left her heart in pieces (view spoiler)[ When Jensen told Mia that the girl he briefly dated got pregnant, my heart also broke for Mia...I've never been in that situation but goddamn!!!! (hide spoiler)]. And yes, they broke up. 
 Five years later, Mia's now in NYC and Jensen is a successful writer. He writes for the Sunday paper and is also an author for several children's books. Guess what...their paths crossed again one day, and this is where we learn that both still have strong feelings for one another. Just when you thought that everything's okay (their relationship's okay, Mia loved Jensen's daughter, Mia finally met Krista and everything's well between them), Mia made this decision (view spoiler)[to go back to Cali to do shots for People magazine (hide spoiler)]. 
 I like the fact they had another shot at second chance. It was a happy ever after ending for them but, I still cannot help but cringe everytime I remember why they broke up in the first place (idk it seems like a difficult situation to be in for Mia)
