This book and my reaction to it, absolutely GOLDEN!!!! I literally had a very visceral response to this beautiful story, as every word, each phase completely captured me. It made me smile, laugh, swoon, cry and made me feel joy, pain and every emotion in between. This is the best story, with a "Cherry" on top, okay pun intended. I absorbed every word with rapt attention, wanting more, more, savoring each delicious morsel; with the end leaving me so full emotionally and completely satisfied from this hearty experience. Only a few authors make me feel like each of their reads is a true, precious experience, i.e. Colleen Hover, Amy Harmon and now I must add Brittainy Cherry.This story is poetic, lyrical, spiritually and magical; I truly loved it! My heart was touched so deeply by all the pain, loss and grief that both Daniel Daniels (love the double) and Ashlyn had endured. Loved all the Shakespeare references, how everything from the band name, to the Shakes game to the story plot, all ties so neatly together. The supporting characters are brilliant, and brought such richness to the story. As much as I loved this story, I didn't want it to end; and I must confess that I have always been a sucker for the teacher/student romance, and this one is one of the best. Sigh***what a romantic tale, that has left me breathless. It a beautiful, beautiful read. Thank you Brittainy for such a lovely, lovely story!!
