No Limits by Ellie Marney
5.0
One of my favourite things about Ellie Marney's writing are her characters and how real they feel. The ordinary kind of person that you could meet in real life. Harris is flawed but decent at heart and carrying so much hurt. I adored Nani, she was such a wonderful secondary character. Barb, the charge nurse reminds me of a few nurses I've worked with.
I felt having the book told from both the Harris' and Amie's perspectives worked really well, especially comparing Amie's view of Harris to how he saw himself. I loved watching as Harris slowly opened up to Amie emotionally, and as he did so started healing. But the important thing was that it wasn't all one sided, that he forced Amie to think about her future more.
The plot certainly kept me on tenterhooks as the tension ramped up and the safety of our characters came into doubt. It's a longer book and there's some difficult stuff, but I'm glad that Ellie kept everything in. Some books are all the better for being hard hitting, and this is one of them.
