The summer after her first year of college, Isobel "Belly" Conklin is faced with a choice between Jeremiah and Conrad Fisher, brothers she has always loved, when Jeremiah proposes marriage and Conrad confesses that he still loves her.
Han took me through the ringer with this one. I was listening to it at work, and when I took off my ear buds, my co-worker asked me if I was crying. I then proceeded to catch her up on what happened in this book (I had been doing this after each book), and then I had her crying. Yeah, this one was emotional, and it wasn't just the Susannah stuff. I have been switching between team Conrad and team Jer the entire series. I still think the whole situation is a little awkward, but Han made some choices for Belly, which made it easier for me to reconcile the situation.
It was a very emotional, sweet, and touching ending to this series, which I grew quite fond of.
