Reviews (Excerpts)

- "[...] I loved the flow of the story - not once did anything stall and the author had me captivated the entire time. It takes a special book where my attention is riveted enough to finish it in one or two days - and that's what I did with this one. Every character is flawed in this story - and those are the best kind - so that you get to experience their growth and maturity as it progresses and learn some life lessons along the way. It also makes them more relatable and the emotions you feel more raw. The fact that I got so worked up over these characters in my review and while reading just goes to show how good of a job the author did in getting you invested in them and making them real. This story holds a special little place in my heart - and I hope it touches other readers as well. I can only hope this author continues to write more in the future! " - Kristin
