Product Description
What if you had a second chance at first love?
Susannah and Rob were childhood sweethearts. But as with most early love affairs, they broke up, moved on and now find themselves in very different places.
And not entirely happy - who is?
A chance meeting between them sends shockwaves through their lives. What happens when your first love makes a surprise reappearance? Is fate telling you it's time for a second chance . . . or should you simply walk away and let the past become ancient history?
But Susannah and Rob just aren't able to forget the way they were . . . and the world is about to discover the consequences of their reunion.

Format:Hardcover
I enjoyed this book far more than I expected to. The cover made it seem like just another chick-lit read, a genre I'm not too fond of, but it was by no means a fluffy read where life always somehow works out. Instead there were very real characters with very real situations and in the end, I found it hard to put down. Personally I enjoy a book where I don't know what's going to happen and I found this a terrific read.

As I am a fan of Elizabeth Noble's books I thought i had missed the publishing of a new book and ordered this book and a copy of 'When you were mine'! I am somewhat annoyed as the latter/former is just a renaming of the first book.This happened with the Tenko Club!! What's going on? I've just wasted my money! Why rename books?
I enjoyed reading this book, and find EN books very enjoyable. I've attended a Book event which included EN, which i found enhanced the reading of her books.

Format:Paperback
This started of as a promising book but then went tumbling down all the way to the end. I liked the idea of looking back at your early life and wondering where it had all gone, don't we all do this as we get older, but susannahs early life that she was reminiscing about was as dull as her current life. To then be taken off on a tangent by subplots - friend with cancer, being a step mum etc only for them to lead no where.
The dullness of this book could be ignored if it was more realistic but there was so many inaccuracies that it made it un believable. How could Susannah have a career as a lawyer and yet spend most of the time with her head in the clouds and had more free time then any person I know?
At the heart of a book should be a story and a book with a good story can often be forgiven many things, this had no story and so can be forgiven nothing.

Dreary and generic title for a dreary generic book
Got to agree with the reviewer who said 'The way we were' was an awful unoriginal title. It kind of sets the tone for a rather dull unengaging story. Read more

Depressing
Although I'm not 10 years old anymore, I'm not ashamed to admit that I like a happy ending. Although this isn't a 'bad' ending as such, it's just not really what I would describe... Read more

Poor, with occasional flashes of brilliance.
This was my first Elizabeth Noble read, and I have to say I was sadly disappointed. The plot is slow-moving and feels repetitive, and the past/present flipping of chapters stilts... Read more
