This book was a little disappointing. I did read it through to the end in a short time but in some ways, I felt it was a rather typical story of unrequited love. Lucy and Gabe meet at Columbia University on Sept 11 and together witness the horror that occured that day. They have a strong bond and a strong attraction to each other. But Gabe is pulled toward his dream - of being a photojournalist, traveling the world and he follows his heart in that direction. Lucy is devastated and suffers, always loving Gabe. But her life goes on and she marries, has children, etc. Then you can almost guess what happens. That is why I was disappointed in the book. It was predictable. Kirkus gave it a star.... I was surprised.
