"Cycles exist because they are excruciating to break. It takes an astronomical amount of pain and courage to disrupt a familiar pattern. Sometimes it seems easier to just keep running in the same familiar circles, rather than facing the fear of jumping and possibly not landing on your feet."
Lily hasn't always had it easy, but that's never stopped her from working hard for the life she wants. She's come a long way from the small town in Maine where she grew up - she graduated from college, moved to Boston, and started her own business. So when she feels a spark with a gorgeous neurosurgeon named Ryle Kincaid, everything in Lily's life suddenly seems almost too good to be true.
Ryle is assertive, stubborn, and maybe even a little arrogant. He's also sensitive, brilliant, and has a total soft spot for Lily, but Ryle's complete aversion to relationships is disturbing.
As questions about her new relationship overwhelm her, so do thoughts of Atlas Corrigan - her first love and a link to the past she left behind. He was her kindred spirit, her protector. When Atlas suddenly reappears, everything Lily has built with Ryle is threatened.
With this bold and deeply personal novel, Colleen Hoover delivers a heart-wrenching story that breaks exciting new ground for her as a writer. It Ends With Us is an unforgettable tale of love that comes at the ultimate price.

“In the future . . . if by some miracle you ever find yourself in the position to fall in love again . . . fall in love with me.”
Wow Wow Wow! I haven't been moved by a book since Me Before You...
This book took a turn I was NOT expecting and I loved every minute!! I was honestly so engrossed in the story that I read it on my phone kindle app while listening to live music at a festival.
I really don't want to go into any detail and potentially spoil any surprises, but the writing is perfect and I was completely absorbed even before the end of the first chapter. The characters all play an important part of the story, and were exactly who they needed to be. The relationship between Ryle and Lily was painfully, but profoundly real. Even Atlas had an important story to tell.
Definitely a 5 star book in my opinion, but I would give it 6 stars if I could because of the Note from the Author at the end.
Colleen Hoover is now officially on my top 5 favourite author list (November 9 almost had her there, but this just topped her over)
