Nowhere but Here by Renée Carlino
4.0
This book gets an A!!!
I just finished this book and the one word that can describe how I feel at the moment is satisfied. I can't think of a single thing missing from this book, it was complete perfection. Renee Carlino has written another beautiful romance with characters that imprint themselves into your being.
This story actually came across more like a movie to me, and I think that's because Renee writes such vivid scenes that are multidimensional and multifaceted. I've never been to Napa or Chicago, but these cities were so vivid, they jumped off the page. I could feel the tranquility of a Napa vineyard, and I could experience the grittiness and frost of Chicago in the winter. Amazing!
The imagery only made the characters that much more believable to me. I saw a lot of myself in Kate. I'm realizing that this author has a thing for STUBBORN heroines. Kate is as fearful of love and heartache as the rest of us, and seeing her struggle to accept love hit me on a personal level. I think that anyone can identify with her insecurities. Jamie was the sexy, mysterious man that Kate needed to open up to in order to embrace love, in order LIVE. Jamie and Kate's love was soul deep, and their journey left me full of hope and inspiration.
I don't mean to get too philosophical about love and all that mushy stuff, but if you're feeling a little down, or leaning towards skepticism, I'd recommend you read this book. Sometimes you just need a beautiful love story with a happily ever after to brighten your day! Buy it!
