Book Synopsis

"A gorgeous love story from one of the finest romance writers out there." —Carley Fortune, New York Times bestselling author of Every Summer After

A New York Public Library Best Book of 2023

A Most Anticipated Book by Entertainment Weekly Harper's Bazaar ∙ PopSugar Real Simple ∙ BookRiot ∙ and more!

An overworked book publicist with a perfectly planned future hits a snag when she falls in love with her temporary roommate…only to discover he lives seven years in the past, in this witty and wise new novel from the New York Times bestselling author of The Dead Romantics.


Sometimes, the worst day of your life happens, and you have to figure out how to live after it.

So Clementine forms a plan to keep her heart safe: work hard, find someone decent to love, and try to remember to chase the moon. 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. Mostly. 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.

    While doing a series reread, I wanted to split the books up with something new/different - a palate cleanser if you may. Could not be happier I landed on this one, absolutely loved it from start to end.

    I flew through this book over two reading sessions. At first, I was a little sleepy but you are quickly engulfed in this New York set novel. For someone who has close loved ones going through a grief journey this book has beautiful wisdom as well as a love story to cheer for. Just beautiful and I wish there was more.

    I loved the writing in this. The way long passed characters felt not just alive in the book but in reality. The perfect amount of cheese and romance to still feel real.
  • Feel good read!

    Great story about how time can change a person’s perspectives and how it is important to remember why we were on a certain path to begin with. It’s beautiful love story as well.
