NEW TOP RECOMMENDATION: Swear On This Life by Renee Carlino (Read my Review)
WOW!! What a stunning book! From the first few pages, I was captivated by the story and I could not put it down even for a minute. It was a unique, intense, all-consuming second chance romance story, and easily one of the very best reading experiences I’ve had all year. I absolutely loved every word and highly recommend it to everyone! After only a few chapters, I immediately cancelled all my plans just so that I could keep reading. I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough. The way the story developed just kept pulling at my heartstrings until every part of me was right there needing to know what happened next and desperate to see how it would end. As as I got closer to that ending, I’ll admit that I was seriously freaking out but then BOOM — I read this one particular line and just started SOBBING!!!! Happy tears!!!! THE FEELS!!! MY HEART WAS RACING!!!! And it was just so beautiful and fulfilling that I was overwhelmed with emotion. This book was everything I was searching for. I highly recommend it!
