Twenty-One Trees

Twenty-One Trees

My Review
I can’t imagine what it would be like to wake up from a coma and not remember you family, children, who you were married to or the last 7 years of your life. My heart went right out to Savannah from the start with all her confusion and how frighten she was when she woke up in the hospital from her coma. Savannah story is a very touching and a unique read that reach in and pull on your heartstrings. This is a story full of friendship, love, sadness, depression, abuse, and above all else love and loyalty.

Losing the last seven years of her life waking up one day to find you are married to her best friend, finding she has children she didn’t know about and seeing her parents had age has put her in a tail spin, confused and uncertain of life and who she is. In her mind she is still single engaged to her Bobby her high school sweetheart. Life was good she was to marry the hottest boy in school. She has her whole life ahead of her and finds it has taken a very much different route than she would have ever have thought. Not sure how to deal with this all she has a hard time and a very difficult road she must travel to find the peace she needs and away back to the family she guess she loves. Being the prom queen, having one of the hottest football players as you man she has a very difficult time see her life now with no glamour or hot man but to find she is married to her best friend Birdy which really throws her for a tailspin. Will she be able to deal with the issues at hand, her marriage and her kids or will all that has happen be more than she can deal with. I do not know about you but I would be freaking out at this time.

The author gives you characters you can relate to just normal run of the mill people you will fall in love with. A family torn in two trying to find their way back to each other truly hits you in your heart. Savannah is truly one lucky lady who has a husband that any women would be delighted to have. When most men most likely would have pulled away after a time this is one man who meant his vows. This is one author who knows how to pull you in making you forget you are reading giving you a story you get lost in. You will find there will be times you will be yelling, others where you might have a tear and still yet a few where you will smile. She gives you wonderful characters you are so going to love their children as Birdy pulls the family together rallying around Savannah. I loved how she brought humor into the read, there is nothing better than humor in such a sad story. If you can laugh or smile through lives tough times you can live through anything as this author shows us with her characters. Come let the author take you away with a story you won’t easily forget.

Summary
Sometimes, secrets are the ties that bind two people together for life—especially the painful ones. Savannah May Holladay and her best friend from childhood, James “Birdy” Johnson, harbor many, many dark secrets.

Birdy also has an undying love for Savannah that spans over two decades. Unfortunately for him, Savannah is a wealthy debutante engaged to the town’s most eligible bachelor—and Birdy is a truck driver.

But after a nasty incident, Savannah wakes up in a hospital bed and can’t remember one thing about the past seven years—not her marriage to Birdy instead of her boyfriend, and especially not the birth of their four children. In what feels like an instant, she’s lost her perfect life and become an impoverished housewife.

Savannah must struggle through her memory loss to recover some kind of love for her husband and children. Will Birdy’s unwavering devotion be enough to carry her through and bring back her lost years? Or could Birdy’s own secrets make matters even worse?

Wealth, poverty, love, loss, and amnesia create a challenging road for Savannah May Holladay. Find out how she traverses these obstacles and unearths the hidden bonds with her childhood friend in Twenty-One Trees.
