MY OH MY! Let me get my fangirling self together before I start this review.
This story is about an innocent girl who was loving life at college, until one fateful night, it all changed for the worse. Eden Rivers was a girl who had everything going for her. You dive right into the story, getting acquainted with Eden and what happened to her four years ago in December.
Throughout the novel, you can feel a strong bond, not only between Eden and Ky, but also between their close friends and family. From the beginning, you get that Ky is super protective, but it also made him the knight in shining armor. Always there when you needed it, yet battling his own demons inside. The relationship between Ky, Josh, and Ashlyn is very strong, and humorous at times. I found myself laughing at some of the things that both Ashlyn and Josh would say to Ky.
Overall I found this novel to be utterly amazing. Rachel Brookes did a great job to tackle a hard topic, most fear of discussing, and turning it into a marvelous story. And one that I believe will help people who are suffering in their own ways. The writing style was on point, and the attraction between characters was undeniable. I was definitely on a roller coaster of emotions, going from hating, to loving, to heartbreaking, to passionate.
You automatically felt a loving bond between them, and I absolutely loved it! I really didn't want the story to end. It was a bittersweet conclusion to an amazing, heartbreaking yet powerful story.
