The Lovely Return by Carian ColeMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
This book really had me questioning so much, like - does true love carry into the next life? Axel and Penny met at such a young age and each time you could see traces of life that she shouldn’t have known. They had a great friendship that grew strong over the years and their connection would be unusual to most. And honestly, the age difference really put me on edge a little. As they grew older, the chemistry became strong.
When things took a big turn, my heart ached for both of them, especially after the amount of time they were apart. I liked how they all grew through the read, however Alex took a long time to get past his demons. Penny seemed to make it easier for him. Penny struggled with what she was told and what she experienced. Overall, this was quite a sweet moving read that had all the feels.

What if love can transcend time and death?
They say be careful what you wish for. But on December 5, Alex Fox makes a wish in the midst of a devastating tragedy. He wishes for a happily ever after with the love of his life. Little does he know that his wife will make that wish come true.
Years later, a young girl wanders into Alex’s studio. With her charming personality, endless questions, and adorable smile, Penny Rose becomes an enchanting yet bittersweet distraction.
Penny Rose is an odd girl—at least, that’s what her parents say. Penny herself doesn’t feel particularly odd; she simply feels misplaced. As if somehow, in some way, she is living in the wrong place in the wrong life.
As the years pass, Alex and Penny develop a friendship. But it becomes harder and harder for them to ignore their undeniable connection, no matter how off limits it is.
Alex thought he’d never find love again, let alone fall for a girl half his age. But Penny slowly captured his heart.
Penny's been head over heels for brooding artist Alex Fox for as far back as she can remember. But when her childhood dreams and memories start resurfacing again—full of details of a life with Alex way before she was even born—she starts to think the impossible:
They’re memories of a previous life with him.
Penny’s revelation to Alex threatens to tear them apart, making them question the unbelievable.
Can love truly transcend time and death, giving them a second chance at their happily ever after?
