Customer Reviews

Such a lovely book, until it isn't

I was thrilled to get a new book by my favorite author! But after getting about halfway through the book, I was sorely disappointed. I won't spoil it for the readers but, it is not what I expected nor is it a new favorite like I had hoped. The love Hailey and Samuel share is always there, but there is such a heart jerking part that I almost couldn't continue reading. I wish instead of what happens, that Samuel and Hailey could have been together from the start, not later on. The addition of James in the way Oliveira put him was in my opinion, unnecessary and he could have been antagonist in another way entirely. It's not a book I would recommend, but not one I'd shirk from either. I hope to read more reviews to see what others think.
