Me After You is one of the most heartbreaking stories I've read in awhile. Obviously from the synopsis you are aware its a tale of loss. The story takes place in the present as well as the past something I rather enjoy in my books.Sawyer left Willowhaven 5 years ago after the love of her life (who cares she was only 18 when she left some people find their soul mate early) told her he no longer loved her and was leaving for good. She vowed never to return but after the brutal loss of her husband, Grayson, she returns to pick up the pieces somehow. She moves back in with her parents and attempts to mourn/grieve her husband poor thing is DESTROYED. Sawyers depression was so beautifully written, there were times where I would feel the heaviness of what she was dealing with and had to put my kindle down to give myself a reality check.  Slowly her best friend Alix brings Sawyer out of her shell. And thank god for Alix because she really helped the story along. As Sawyer comes out of her shell she ventures out of her room and the house even. What she didnt expect was to run into Dean, the love of her life. He broker her heart when he left he made damn sure no one could find out where he went.Dean returned after a few years only to find out Sawyer moved to Seattle. He painfully moves on and begins dating one of Sawyers best friends, Lily. He also opens up a motorcycle repair shop and does pretty well for him. Hes content with the life hes leading but when he sees Sawyer the old feelings pop up, not that ever left. His mission through out most of the book is to get Sawyer to talk to him again. He knows hes fecked up.You cant help but root them on. Watching their pasts and knowing how good they were for each other was sweet and gave soo much to the story. I personally dont live in a world where one sitting reading is an option between my A.D.D and three kids im lucky if I get an hour at a time, Id like to think if it were possible I wouldve read Me After You in one sitting. It's DAMN GOOD!
