With This Heart is an ultimate high of a book for me.  I honestly had to have Kleenex while reading the novel.  R.S. Grey writes a compelling story of a young woman gaining a second chance of living.  The question that is raised is what would you do different in your life, if you had a second chance at living?  Ponder that question while reading With This Heart.  Honestly, I left the story feeling grateful for every small win that I get in my life.  Things may not be rosy, but there is so much to be grateful for.With This Heart reminds me of when I was in high school.  Doctors at Children's Hospital in Seattle, Washington thought I had a tumor in my kidney area.  My kidney on the right side wasn't acting right, and upon having several tests, it was determined I was going in for surgery for a Uretereocele Removal and Kidney Reimplation.  I remember being in the hospital with the other kids that were either on transplant lists, or had Cancer.  In fact, one of my roommates reminded me of Abby's best friend in the story.  One of my biggest memories is when the Seahawks football players came in at Halloween and brought us stuffed animals, donated by the players.  After the football players left, my roommate and I had a great time talking about how sexy the football players were.  I guess reading about Abby and her friend brought back the special memories I had with my roommate.  And that definitely brought in the Kleenex.What I loved about With This Heart is the trip that Abby wanted to go on.  Beck was just adorable, and so funny.  I was really cheering for Abby to get a HEA.The issue is that nobody's HEA comes easy.  That is true for Abby.  R.S. Grey shows a form of realism in the story that everything of great worth is possible to achieve with quite a bit of effort, and a little bit of TLC.  But will Abby ever get a chance to have her HEA?With This Heart is a story that a reader will enjoy over and over.  When you want a good novel to read, turn to R.S. Grey, and With This Heart.Also, I am really hoping a paper book comes out soon.  I will be adding the book to the my home library.I am also going to be voting for With This Heart to be the top 2014 books of the year."Complimentary copy provided by author/publisher for an honest review."
