Be prepared to fall in love; deeply in love, on several levels, for several reasons.Justin's portrayal of Alex is so endearing that you will love him instantly and your heart will beat first in sympathy upon realizing the ordeal this precious young man has been forced to endure, then in admiration that he not only survived but remained whole in the process.Next your love will fall on Drew and his boundless compassion, his undying patience with Alex and for his enthusiastic love of life. Mr. South's creation of Drew surely originates in the heart for from nowhere else could such dedication be born.Following the first two, falling for the story itself is inevitable. Even though there is some jumping back and forth between past and present, it is done with such finesse that it's completion has arrived almost before the reader realizes it has occurred . Characterizations and plot are precisely intertwined and exhibit a smooth pulse throughout.I genuinely look forward to more from Justin in The Journey's To Love Collection because he justifiably brings to the foreground the plights of so many teens that unfortunately still exist in our so-called civilized societies.One final thought; if you haven't yet read Mr. South's companion book, Paul & Sam, I very strongly recommend that you do so at once.....you won't be disappointed.
