For Lucy

Jewel E. Ann

4.28 AVERAGE


This was so heartbreaking to listen to. It was like watching a car crash and not being able to look away. You could feel the absolute grief that these characters were feeling.. it was like I was grieving too. The narrator, Connor, did an amazing job with this. The story is mainly told from Emmett’s perspective, so it made sense to only have Connor narrate. Usually I like 2 narrators, but this worked for me.

5/5⭐️ 1.5/5

This really touched me to the core because i know what losing someone means. Im going through the same thong. I haven't lost anyone yet but anything can happen and thats what scares me. How does one go on living. How does a marriage service? I loved Emmett so much. I think no one can loves this selflessly like him. He is a rare diamond. I'm sill skeptical of Tatum. I understood her situation. If i was in her place, i might have reacted the same but five years???!!! and so cruel to not allowing her kid to meet the father. I wished after fe w years she might have realized it was wrong. At no point in five years did she think that what she was going through her husband would have gone through it worse and alone?? I guess this is a specialty of Jewel E Ann. she doesn't sugarcoat realities and people. That's what made it perfect. If this didn't have a happy ending i would have been much happy.

This book started slow for me but the more I read the more I fell in love with this story and felt invested in this family. Loved this story.

OMG!!! This book was so good! It was so unexpected, but truly delved into very hard subjects. I loved Emmett. His love was more, and he lived with hurt. Tatum was spunky, but when their life was hard, she couldn’t see past her hurt. Can I just say Lucy at the end had me laughing & crying? She was a great character! I recommend this book! It will rip your heart out in the best possible way.

Jewel E Ann leaves me speechless again.

This was such a heavy and emotional romance. It’s real, raw, and thought provoking. This book touched my soul.

This story follows a family dealing with the aftermath of a tragic and horrifying event. Ultimately, it breaks up the marriage of a couple that were destined to be together.

There was dual timelines so you learn how they fell in love and slowly uncover what broke apart their marriage.

This is a second chance romance that deals with grief, healing, forgiveness, perseverance and love.

I think that Emmett might be my new top book husband. He was so selfless and loved with his entire heart. The things he did for his family was unbelievable.

Please check triggers before going into this book.

I love this being in emmetts point of view. I have never read a male point of view that felt so realistic to me. This was heartbreaking perfection. I felt it and I cried with it. I don’t think I will ever forget this book.
