I’m ashamed and a bit sad to admit that this is the first book that I have read by M.S. Willis.  After finishing Because of Ellison my only question was what reason could I possibly have for waiting so long? I’m aware that this particular book is far different than her usually dark stories but the eloquence as well as the beautiful and striking description was astounding and had me instantly devouring every word.The characters were well developed and fascinatingly complicated.  My feelings on Ellison were all over the place.  Were there times when I despised Ellison? Sure. Were there times when I could understand the way she was acting and how she was hiding behind her words and actions? Yep.  Were there also times when my heart went out to her and all her wrongdoings and misdeeds were forgotten? Absolutely.  Ellison’s attitude and actions were also a true testament to Hunter’s growth as well as his commitment.  No matter what, there is no denying the number and significance of lessons that Hunter learned because of Ellison.I think it’s fair to say that this book was not exactly action packed.  There were few dramatic twists and turns and very little actual conflict. Does that mean there was nothing going on? Not even close.  Between the beautiful writing, the philosophical nature of the lessons learned, Ellison’s outlook, and the heartbreak endured it was exceedingly intellectually stimulating, inspiring, and tear-jerking not to mention a beautiful and touching love story that could make Nicolas Sparks green with envy.
