"This is a flawless story. The writing is superb, the story alluring. The characters are well developed with a palpable authenticity that makes you able to connect with them. It is narrated by Sahara, and this gives the reader a chance to really connect with her and see how guilt has necrotised her emotions.Sahara is a shattered mess. Her whole life has been smashed apart by an incident that occurred when she was just 18. Rather than living, she goes through the motions, protecting herself from emotions by not establishing any new friendships and not maintaining her old ones. It is only through the discovery that Tyree has recently lost his only family member that she allows herself to explore the attraction she feels for him.Tyree has an inner strength that comes out in his words and his gestures. He is patient and kind, smart and steady. His romantic gestures are not over the top, and I think this is what makes him a character you can enjoy in the hero's role.The ending of this book is a cliffhanger. I love cliffhangers because they give me a true indication of how enthralled I am in a book. This is one book where I had no idea I'd reached the end and a resounding "NOOOOOO!" echoed through the house when I turned the page and found only "The End' staring back at me. This ending has me as deperate as a glutton locked out of a banquet for the next book, not only to see what happens with the story, but because the writing style of the author is very good, with important plot points being revealed in manner that adds to the reading experience." - IvaFor the full review visit[...]
