I really couldn't put it down. It has angst, intensity, and tenderness all woven into one incredible ride. I will try to keep this short so as not to reveal any spoilers, but wow, it's hard! There is so much that can be said!The author, Michelle Mankin, rocked yet another novel right out of the park! She is very thorough in her writing and gives her characters such awesome realistic depth.If you have had or known/have known anyone with depression and realize what it's like, you will love how depression is incorporated in this book and conquered. The author portrayed the signs, symptoms and progress in her characters flawlessly. Way to raise awareness Michelle Mankin!! Great job!I can't wait for more Tempest! I want it NOW!! I wasn't sure before starting this book that I would like War's story at all, no matter how well written I knew it would be, because War was a butt in both previous books. I couldn't have been more wrong, because now, it may be my new favorite in the series!1-Click this bad boy ASAP!!!
