The Silent Waters by Brittainy C. Cherry
4.0

I really enjoyed this story. I was fasting for my holiday and I was in the mood for something sad but hopeful and this hit the spot. This story was heartbreaking but so beautiful. Find me a man like Brooks and I swear I'll never let him go!

If I'm reading contemporary romance, this is exactly how I like my books. This book takes you on a journey. We follow the relationship between Maggie and Brooks from the time they are basically tots to full-grown adults. Their love story isn't easy and that is what makes this such a good emotional read.

Maggie witnesses something terrible and from that day she is silent. Brooks, a family friend, feels like it's his fault that Maggie was out in the woods that day and got hurt. Maggie won't speak or tell a soul what happened that day. However, Brooks vows to be by her side, even when it's hard. On the outside, their relationship seems doomed from the start but to them, it's everything that they need to go on.

Absolutely loved this book.
