Thank you to @prhaudio and @evelyn_skye for the gifted audiobook.
This captivating love story beautifully explores second chances and the essence of life. It masterfully intertwines these themes as Claire grapples with Matías’ injury. I was enchanted by the magical realism, as Claire endeavors to guide Matías’ spirit back to his wounded body. The vivid descriptions of art, food, and the landscapes of Spain are simply breathtaking. The narrative unfolds through the perspectives of Claire, Matías, and his family, adding rich layers to an already profound tale. The emotions were intense, and the portrayal of Claire and her family's grief was both poignant and heartrending.
The narrators delivered compelling performances, breathing life into each character and harmonizing perfectly with one another.
If you’re drawn to stories filled with magic and the power of second chances, this book is an absolute must-read.
