I knew this author could write, but I am blown away by this
sweet heartbreaking, emotional, loving read. I can tell this was written straight
from her heart she grabbed mine from the first page until the end. Love can be
the sweetest things but it can also tear your world apart. Nothing can be worse
than falling in love and having your parents try to tear you apart. It seems
that George and Susan (Devyn’s
parents) live by the rule “at first if you don't succeed try, try again” as
they do everything possible to break these two up. At first, I didn’t care for
her father at all, but he does grow on you, her mother my feelings for her was
up in the air for a while. Tommy is the winner here he stole my heart from the
first page, what a loving caring supporting man who gives his all to make the
woman he loves happy. Devyn
is a bigger winner with me as well, caring, loving and giving she is torn
between the man she loves and the love she has for her parents.
The author builds a base that could be easy to tumble down if Devyn and Tommy let it. It seems these two just can’t get a break just as they come together with a united front things fall apart leaving them torn and broken. Just into the first few pages my heart breaks for these two. Many tears will fall from their eyes and yours as life and her parents hit them over and over again. There are twists and turns that holds your attention. When the end comes as two hands reach out to touch each other your heart will be in your throat and you will have tears in your eyes.
The author gave this a lot of thought, and she spins a story that will touch you deep. I doubt you can read this without it touching you in some way. The characters are very likable, the plot outstanding, the emotion, passion, love is to die for. Have the tissues handy you will need them. It isn’t all sadness, there are many smiles, overcome, growing, learning, laughs, building, love and in the end family. I was just in aww from the first page, it is a story I could not put down and read at one setting. My husband looked at me and said when did you start that book? This morning. Wow and you almost done. Yep it was one that touched me deeply and I couldn’t put it down. No truer words have been said I was just in awww. This is a book of three and the first one leaves you hanging but wow for 99 cents you can’t past it up. It is so worth the money plus more, I was spellbound with my heart beating faster many times throughout. I laughed, had tears and just about cried. Once you read it you will know why I picked this as one of my favorite reads. I am off to start book two…..
