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 wanted more than anything within me to be able to give this book 5 stars, but I just can’t. I enjoyed it - I did - but I just can’t. I’ve read worse books, I’ve read books that have made me cry less, I’ve read books with less emotion and I’ve read books that I’ve been less invested in finishing. But that’s just it, the ending. I adored this book, even though it was slow at first and I trudged through a couple of chapters wondering how on earth her entire life’s story was necessary but how this author managed to give so much raw emotion and detail for so much of this book for the last chapters to entirely drop off - it ruined it for me it really did. I felt like I was reading an entirely different book after 80 chapters it just wasn’t the same. I did enjoy it, I did love it, I did cry, I just needed more.

Definitely a book I will recommend to my daughter when she is a young adult because I would have loved this book earlier in life. It is a good palette cleanser though!
