11:59 Kindle Edition

4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars 649 ratings

After spending her whole childhood in and out of foster care, TJ Edmonds has created a whole brand around not getting attached to other people. She has a best-selling novel and a popular phone app both dedicated to helping people stay detached from their significant others, so they don't get hurt. She even uses the method in her own life to allow her to jump from woman to woman. Life is pretty perfect. At least, on the outside. Inside, she's keeping a big secret. The only reason she can move on so quickly now is because she still hasn't let go of someone from her past. It's easy to guard her heart when she no longer has it to give away.

After everything TJ put her through, Brooke Finnegan vowed she would never speak to her again, but in a moment of weakness, she reaches out to her. Now that she's back in TJ's world, she's falling for her all over again. TJ seems to have changed, but the one thing that tore them apart (TJ's inability to commit) is what TJ's whole career is based around. Can Brooke separate the real woman she knows and loves from the one that the public sees, or will it tear them apart all over again?

I was NOT prepared for this journey. I also couldn’t put it down. I started it this morning and powered through to get to the end. It tugs in your heart strings throughout the entire journey, and it is very much so worth the ride.

I am a fan of Ms. Lee's books and this one may be the best one yet! Story line and title are both intriguing and original. Kept me riveted in the first part of the book. No spoilers here because that would totally mess up the read. I am always a big fan of seeing the perspectives from both main characters as so many authors only write it from one perspective. Buy it - you won't regret it!!

I usually can’t stand how authors try to go back and forth from present to past however Erica Lee managed to do it so well.

I throughly enjoyed the progression of Tiff and the navigation of her and Brooks coming together. While there are many lighthearted moments and laughter there was also the deep rooted pain that made this such an emotional story about reflection, acceptance and perseverance.

I was pleasantly surprised with this book and exceptionally happy that it didn’t turn into a heavily sexed lesbian melodrama.

I never leave five stars for a review, but this one was so good! It touched me! I cried, and I laughed. I highly recommend reading this book! I didn't want it to end.

This book is so well written. Erica really knocked it out of the park with this one.

A must read!

It was a good story but was way too long. The length didn't add tension because it was obvious that they were gonna eventually get married and have a family.

So much of the constant rehashing could have been condensed, and of course anyone who cared about TJ would have made sure she got into therapy years before she finally did.

The part about the crazy evangelicals could actually have been left out, from the minute they asked her to join their family you knew exactly how badly that would end. Hard to imagine that anybody who is a fan of Sapphic Fiction would feel anything but hate and disgust at such people. Why even acknowledge such evil people exist? Even though we know they do.

An Erica Lee book to open the year reminds me what a talent she is. The time, the texts, the commitment and the love that went inside the 11:59 was genius. TJ is living a life that is not real. Her whole persona was based on “Not Getting Attached” a best selling book and an app cemented her success. But every night for the past five years TJ sent a text with how she was feeling to a number that used to belong to someone she loves. Brooke was listening to the latest interview with TJ Edmonds even though she could only think of her Tiffany from back then.
How far apart their lives were but how connected they still were. In a tale of present day needs to go back to the past to move forward to the future, Erica Lee takes us on a discovery of letting the past hurts mold who you really are.

I really like the build up. The whole thing was very will written. I think this could be a series. I would love to see more stories from these characters.

You'll find everything you want in a book and also things you'd rather avoid, but that's what healing process is usually about. Thank you to the author for another beautifully written book that will sit with me for a long time

Erica Lee strikes again!!.
This is a beautifully written book. There's so many emotions all the way through & it's a pure rollercoaster ride. The MCs Brooke and TJ easily wiggle their way into your heart from the get go.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 16, 2024
I normally rush into reading books by Erica Lee as they are fantastically written and grip you from the off, this one, for whatever reason I didn’t. I remember TJ from the previous book and wasn’t sure I’d want to read an entire book about her.
For me, this is an entirely different book from Lee’s usual. I found it hard to get into and seriously hated TJ. I’ve never taken so long to get through a book by this author before. I agree we needed the back story to understand the character more, but I didn’t expect such a small section on the whole reason they originally broke up. The entire book teases how they split and it was just barely mentioned then nothing more. I understand you can’t fit everything in but that should have been expanded upon.
Even though I struggled to finish this I would still say it’s a great read covering hard topics. TJ does redeem herself and I grew to like her by the end. It definitely won’t stop me reading the next Erica Lee release. I think maybe this just wasn’t for me but please read it and make your own decision.
