THE NIGHT WE MET by Abby Jimenez is the second book that returns to the same friend group as the March 2025 release SAY YOU’LL REMEMBER ME.
Larissa is offered a ride home from a concert by two different men. She chooses Mike, who is more outgoing and friendly, over Chris, who doesn’t seem interested. The meet-cute leads to Larissa and Mike starting a relationship. When Chris agrees to help Larissa as a favor for Mike, Chris and Larissa discover how much they have in common. They begin spending more time together, co-parenting a dog, and develop a close friendship that could be so much more. They know they can’t turn back the clock and make different decisions, but how can they move forward without blowing up everyone around them?
It has all the complex, wonderfully written characters and compelling storyline this author is known for, but so much angst and difficult situations for the majority of the book that I was stressed as I waited for it all to work out well. Worth the read as a well-crafted book, but know going in that it is not a light rom-com.
