**I received a copy of this book but that did not influence the review**LOVED!! I have so many feelings after just finishing this book, and they are all good. Such a fantastic concept and world that I was transported to. I was drawn in from chapter 1...then I got to chapter 2 and found it was from Constantine's POV. WIN!AJ, or Autumn, has randomly disappeared since she was a baby. The disappearing has never been predictable or explainable, and weighs heavily on her. Because of this AJ has 2 friends: Lex and Ipod. Other than them she keeps to herself, terrified that someone might see her disappear. She has lived all these years without answers until Constantine DeMille comes to town. While Constantine may have many of the answers for AJ, he also has his own set of problems. This is the story of AJ and Constantine and how their lives are never the same after they cross paths.When a story has a good romance it catapults it straight up the ratings for me. This was no exception. Rewrite Redemption had a great romance...the way the chemistry was written was so beautiful. AJ and Constantine could actually feel and sense each other, and I swear I felt it too. The pure happiness that washed over them as well as the extremely strong pull they had to each other was so palpable.  Even a slight touch was full of emotion. With the dual POVs the reader gets it from both sides, which is total win. Ms. Walker, it was so well done. Bravo!I want to mention the best friends next....they were great and not annoying. Lex was confident, but smart. She was totally clued in, not like so many bffs you read about. She was not the babbling airhead that has no value in the story. She absolutely had a concrete role and was great. Ipod wasn't as prominent, but his role was also worthy as well. The story wouldn't have been the same without them.One of my favorite parts of this book was the treehouse - I loved it. It sounded amazing and I could picture the entire thing. You will just have to read the book to find out!!A subtle factor but crucial to making the book so good was the science. So many times a sci-fi novel glosses over the details and it becomes a little unbelievable. This was really logical and made the story so much better. A lot of times I just accept the bad science and enjoy the story but this time I didn't have to settle.The ending threw a lot of stuff at me at once. The heartache at the end was tough! I was biting my nails and I just wanted to push them into each others arms. However, it was not a cliff hanger and tidied up nicely. Almost too nicely. I don't know if that part was as believable, but I think I just need to let all the info settle. With my head spinning though, there is a good set up for the next novel. I can't wait to see where life as an Editor takes AJ (and Constantine together).This was a fantastic read full of mystery, romance and coming into one's own... and it's unbelievable this is indie.  Pick up a copy today, you won't regret it!
