An achingly authentic and raw portrait of love, regret, and the life-altering impact of the relationships we hold closest to us, this YA romance bestseller is perfect for fans of Colleen Hoover, Jenny Han, and Lynn Painter.

If he had been with me, everything would have been different...

Autumn and Finn used to be inseparable. But then something changed. Or they changed. Now, they do their best to ignore each other.

Autumn has her boyfriend Jamie, and her close-knit group of friends. And Finn has become that boy at school, the one everyone wants to be around.

That still doesn't stop the way Autumn feels every time she and Finn cross paths, and the growing, nagging thought that maybe things could have been different. Maybe they should be together.

But come August, things will change forever. And as time passes, Autumn will be forced to confront how else life might have been different if they had never parted ways...

Captivating and heartbreaking, If He Had Been with Me is perfect for readers looking for:

  • Contemporary teen romance books
  • Unputdownable & bingeworthy novels
  • Complex emotional YA stories
  • TikTok Books
  • Jenny Han fans
  • Colleen Hoover fans

I was a bit disappointed as I feel I just couldn’t get past the book being a teenager vibe. It felt rather predictable and just a tad boring.

I have not read YA in a long time. I am glad I took this recommendation. I liked the way this book was written and how the author was able to touch on heavy subjects. I did shed a tear at the end and I will read the next book.

4.5 stars. The entire concept/plot had a lot of cliches, but It made me so invested in the characters. I really felt for autumn. I have to many feelings to articulate them properly.
