About this eBook

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of It Starts with Us and It Ends with Us comes a passionate tale of friendship, betrayal, and romance.

At twenty-two years old, Sydney is enjoying a great life: She’s in college, working a steady job, in love with her wonderful boyfriend, Hunter, and rooming with her best friend, Tori. But everything changes when she discovers that Hunter is cheating on her—and she’s forced to decide what her next move should be.

Soon, Sydney finds herself captivated by her mysterious and attractive neighbor, Ridge. She can't take her eyes off him or stop listening to the passionate way he plays his guitar every evening out on his balcony. And there’s something about Sydney that Ridge can’t ignore, either. They soon find themselves needing each other in more ways than one.

Ratings and reviews

The story takes a dramatic turn when Sydney uncovers Hunter’s betrayal, thrusting her into a whirlwind of emotions and decisions. The author masterfully captures Sydney’s internal struggle as she grapples with the pain of betrayal and the uncertainty of her future. The depiction of Sydney’s journey is both poignant and relatable, offering readers a window into the complexities of young adult life and the process of rebuilding after a heartbreaking discovery.

This book was an emotional one that’s for sure. I love Sydney and Ridge so much, they are obviously meant to be yet there is Maggie and you don’t even know why he is so devoted to his relationship until much later in the book. Their relationship doesn’t even seem to have any issues so it was really hard to root against them. So much made sense by the end of the book. I have to say I had this book for a few weeks and started and stopped it many times before I really buckled down and read it because it was a little to Angsty for me those times then I bought the audio book and because of my love of Zachary Webber I kept listening. I’m so glad I did because I ended up loving the story. Loving the characters. In the end after many false starts I finished the audio book in one day. Currently listening to Maybe Now. The story of Maybe Someday was very original, not the norm for a pure romance book because for the most of the book Sydney and Ridge are just friends, friends that are obviously complete soul mates. Ridge is such a loyal man. His love for Maggie is admirable even when you find out there were flaws and even though that love was not right for Maggie you can't help but love him for it. Sydney is such a great character, she has to be one of my favorite heroines ever. Her empathy and compassion and understanding of human feelings is selfless. She and Ridge are really perfect for each other. So while this book will rip your heart out and stomp on it over and over again it will put it back together in the end and is completely worth the emotional shredder. This is one of those books that I am going to say is BETTER with the audio. The performances by Webber and Goethals are spot on.

Simply amazing!! This is by far one of the best books I’ve read! Such an emotional story, I couldn’t put it down until I finished it. I always find it hard to put down a good book, but with this one it didn’t matter it was 3 in the morning, I had to finish it. It’s a roller coaster of emotions, having so many funny moments, and some when you just break for the characters. Colleen is such a good writer. Some people are placed on this earth to fill our hearts with the amazing stories they write. A writer is definitely what she was meant to be.
