Let me be honest here....This is by far Leigh Ann's best work to date. Don't get me wrong her Parker Sibling series is great but this.....this is AMAZING! I devoured this book in one sitting and had an emotional roller coaster. So many emotions, I can't even tell you which I felt the most of. 5 stars!
I LOVE THIS BOOK!
The characters were so REAL! You will immediately fall in love with them. I mean I am already tearing up again while writing this thinking of everything they each went through. This is definitely one of those books you will read over and over just to FEEL!
Let me try to break some things down - Spoiler Free. This story depicts what it feels like when you love someone who is not always around........It will hit home - for many - on certain levels. As it did me.
This story takes place over many, many years. I loved that. Leigh Ann did this in a way that it was enjoyable. It wasn't "hey she's a teen in love fast forward ten years" NO....we see a little of Paisley and her life from TEEN to ADULT. And you are going to feel all kinds of emotions watching her grow. I can't tell you how many times my heart ached and yet there were plenty of times I laughed out loud. While watching her grow we see her endure lots of pain in between . The pain of love and loss. So many times I wanted to reach into the book and just hug the shit out of her because she was broken. How can you truly be happy when your "person" is miles away and not with you? She tries - many times over, she tries.
The relationship between Paisley and Jake is kind of a "Forbidden Fruit" thing in the beginning. And yet the attraction and pull is so strong - They are blindsided by the pull they have for one another. This is not some fairy tale story of boy meets girl....they fall in love and live HEA. The story of Paisley and Jake takes you on a journey. A true to life journey. A journey full of the GOOD, THE BAD, and THE UGLY and everything in between. Jake is total swoon worthy and if I had ran into him at a party I would have been all over that. He tries - hard - to do the right things. Both of them are flawed. If their journey doesn't pull at your heart - well then you don't have one =)
I literally had to stop reading several times and take a moment. I was hysterically crying. And it really isn't for reasons you will think. I am a lush and I am emotional and when a book touches me like this one did... I cry! Often during parts that others would be like "Huh? You did what?"
This is a beautiful, heart warming, heart wrenching coming of age all consuming story. Will Paisley and Jake withstand the tests of time and get the HEA they both deserve? Do yourself a favor.... One. Click. This. Right. Now! You will be blown away.
Bravo my friend Leigh Ann....You totally rocked the shit out of this story! Blew.Me.Away.
