A gripping speculative romance about one girl saving her first love's life by falling for the last person she ever should - his best friend.
Nieve Monroe is devastated after her boyfriend Carter dies saving her from drowning. Even worse she blames herself for his death… and so does his best friend, Max. He was there with them on that fateful day, and he’s never liked Nieve.
Unable to pull herself from her grief and wanting to hide from the accusation in his eyes, Nieve goes to stay with her grandmother, who has always had strange stories to tell of uncanny happenings, of magic and make believe. The next morning, Nieve wakes up on the first day of college, the year before.
This time she plans to make sure Carter never follows her into that river. She’ll do everything in her power to keep him safe, even if it means losing him in other ways. But the more distance she puts between her and Carter, the closer she gets to Max, drawn to him in ways she never expected.
But is she betraying Carter if the only way she can save him is to move on? And can she ever forget her past to embrace her future?

Be prepared for emotional ride!
You know when a book will be one of your favorite books. In Time With You will break your heart multiple times, only to be put back together, and it will continue throughout the book. When you have trouble putting the book down but find yourself thinking about the story, you know you will fall in love with it. In Time With You was so beautifully written. There were so many things that I fell in love within this story: the characters, the plot, the dialogue, and even the setting. There wasn’t a single page in this story where my eyes weren’t glued to the page. If I had the time, I would have finished this book in one sitting.
I liked the transitions in this story. I have read books with a time travel aspect before, and sometimes the timeline shifts would get confusing. That wasn’t the case in this story; there wasn’t a single moment when I couldn’t follow the story. Kristin did a fantastic job! There was so much tension between Max and Nieve whenever they communicated; I wondered what would happen between them next. Although I felt bad for Nieve about what happened with her boyfriend, Carter, over time, I wondered if what they had was love. I did wonder what happened the day that Carter died.
In Time With You is much more than a love story; it's a story about grief, friendship, and a second chance at love. I loved how Max and Nieve's relationship grew throughout the story, and you couldn't help but root for them. I could keep going on about this beautiful story, but I don't want to give away too much. You will have to pick up the book and find out for yourself. This book deserves much more than five stars.
