4 star review by Jen Hagen

We got to hear Sarah’s side of the story in Him, and now we get to hear Will’s side in Her.   Will and Sarah were best friends in high school and after a long period of being platonic, their friendship developed into a beautiful romance.  For reasons unknown to Will, one night Sarah suddenly leaves and he has no idea where she went, or why she left.

It’s like someone flipped a switch.  One minute it was bright, full of light, and Sarah was in my arms…Then bam! Nothing but darkness.  I don’t know where she went.  She’s just gone.

Following Sarah’s departure, Will developed a strong friendship with Sarah’s older brother, Brian, and is in fact his best man in the upcoming weekend’s wedding that Sarah is returning home for.  Sarah cannot comprehend how Will and Brian became so close.

“Just because you left doesn’t mean I did.”


During the week-long events leading up to the wedding, Will and Sarah have opportunities to interact with each other.  Will desperately wants to know why she left him when things were so perfect between them.  Will finally hears her answer and the floor drops out beneath him when he fully understands what she saw/heard and why she ran.

“I thought you knew how much I loved you.  How could you not know?”

Outside forces were keeping them apart and misunderstandings were brought to light.  What was seen wasn’t necessarily the truth.  Now that the truth has come out and fences are mended, can they move forward together?  Sarah is a business owner in Denver and Will has a huge family responsibility at home in Georgia.   They need to find a way to keep themselves together as neither one has been able to move forward from the past.

“I’ve loved you and only you, Sarah, for the last seven years.”

The story begins in high school where we are an audience to their strong friendship blossoming into a beautiful romance.  Following Sarah’s departure we are given a brief glance into Will’s life, secondary education and current occupation, leading us into the immediate present of Sarah and Will’s unplanned reunion.

If you are looking for a happy read that will leave you feeling good and believing in a second chance at your first and only love, Her will definitely fill those qualifications.  Will is a great guy and it’s beautiful how both he and Sarah can come together again, putting the misunderstandings behind them.  They deserve their fairytale ending.

“I don’t want to spend one day without you by my side.  You’re all I’ve ever wanted.  Will you marry me?”     sigh….Will.
