Description

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of It Starts with Us, It Ends with Us, and All Your Perfects. Sometimes two people have to fall apart to realize just how much they belong together.

As Layken and Will’s emotion-packed story continues, a stunning and unforeseen revelation about Will’s past leaves them questioning everything that they thought they knew about each other. With the foundation of their relationship at risk, they must decide whether they are willing to fight for a future together, or to retreat back into solitude and heartache.

How far does Will have to go to prove to Layken his love for her will last forever? It will require something truly extraordinary to keep this couple together, and the decisions they make and the answers they find will change not only their lives, but the lives of everyone around them.

  • Not her best

    I bit silly and immature. Not up to her usual level of storytelling.

  • One of my favorites by Hoover

    Love this series. It’s been underrated and not in the press as much as others. So good

    I’ve read almost all of Hoover’s books and this one was by far the worst. The storyline was too sporadic and the details were elementary at best... if I didn’t have a need to finish every book I start, I would’ve quit much sooner.

  • Read it

    A little slow at first but worth it. Just remember to read Slammed first or else it won’t make much sense.

  • Enjoyable, teen read

    I did enjoy it, however not as much as the first one. This one is from Wills narrative and I more so enjoyed Lake being narrator. Good and entertaining read nonetheless!

  • Not as good as the others

    I just came across Colleen Hoover last week when I saw “it ends with us” on Instagram. Since then I read five of her books in four days. There is no doubt that she can pull you in and captivate you with her characters and their raw human emotions. “Point of retreat” was the fifth book of hers that I read and let me tell you I was disappointed. Hoover obviously is a talented writer but, her writing from the male perspective is lacking in emotion compared to her female perspective writing. I felt this way about “ugly love” but that was only a partial and this book was entirely male perspective. I did read the whole thing but it was bland and it felt like she was forcing herself to not right from a female perspective and in turn made the male character so boring. She did not hit it out of the park this time.

  • Absolutely Amazing

    Possibly better than the first book. Heart warming, well developed and thought out characters make this a must read. You are write there with them all as you cry, laugh, and fall in love. I agree with Jaime McGuire's assessment, the whole read was definitely, "Pure Poetry!"
