Danny Morgan is not a Book Boyfriend. He is, without doubt, the ultimate Book Husband.  If there were such things as Book Soul Mates, Danny would be my #1. He's the guy every girl wishes she could marry and have babies with.  He's the man every parent wants their daughter to end up with because they know she will be taken care of, adored and given the best that life has to offer.  There's only one special person for a guy like Danny Morgan, and that's his Liv.  Their story is emotional, which makes me emotional.  It gave me goose bumps, caused my heart to flutter and ache.  It made me cry, and shake my fist.  It doesn't get any better than that! Normally, I don't read books more than once.  I get bored and critical the second go around.  I've read Still Human twice and I could easily read it a 3rd time and still get lost in their journey.  The beautiful love story of Danny and Liv will never get old."Funny and wonderful."Kerry Heavens writes in such a simple and natural way, it really lets you sink into the characters and their story.  Their pain is your pain.  Their happiness is your happiness.  Her stories feel organic and not the least bit contrived.  Her characters could be your next door neighbors.  I can't explain it, other than to say that I feel like I know Danny and Liv personally and I am invested in their story.  I am rooting for them to make it!  I want to catch up with them in a year and see how they are doing.  I want to be invited to their parties and have lunch with Liv.  I'm really quite sad that these things cannot happen in real life.  If someone can make this happen for me, I swear I will reward you with chocolate!"You're everything to me."Danny Morgan has to be the most romantic man on the planet.  Seriously, he flies cross country not once, but TWICE to get the girl.  He is the King of romantic gestures.  No one can top the extremes he goes to in Still Human.  I think I need my husband to read this book.  If you read this and you don't want to do dirty things to Danny then I think you may need to have yourself checked.  Seriously ladies, he's just dreamy and makes me sigh.  When Danny realizes that Liv likes him to be dominant in the bedroom... holy hell... I think it was one of the hottest love scenes I've ever read!  And a heart broken Danny... good lord, his pain and guilt made me ache.  At one point I was so close to flipping the heck out because Danny was just trying so hard and Liv wasn't doing what I thought she should be doing.  I wanted to shake Liv and yell at her "Don't you know what you have?!?!!!"  Ugh.  Danny could teach our husbands and significant others what it means to show someone they love them."Earth to Liv."Liv has to be one of the most stubborn, independent and luckiest ladies alive.  Not only does she have Danny's love, but she also has some damn good friends and family that are on her side.  Max has to be one of the best written secondary characters out there.  He helps carry the story without stealing the focus away from Liv.  He guides Liv, like he knows her better than she knows herself.  What would Liv do without Max?  Probably still be punishing Danny.  There were times when I wanted to shout to Liv to just forgive Danny because you know she wanted to!  Liv was waiting for this grand gesture from Danny but what I don't think she was seeing was that everything Danny does is a grand gesture, meant to show her how much he freaking loves her and you want her to just forgive him so they can move on to the make-up sex!  Have I mentioned that Danny is incredible?  I do admire and respect Liv because she's a strong woman.  No matter what is going on with her personally, she knows who she is and she's bound and determined to make her dreams come true.  With that respect comes my need to smack her upside the head sometimes.  I feel like she could be my BFF so my smacking her would totally be okay.  She would completely understand."This ain't no ordinary shindig!"I love the characters traits Kerry has given Liv and Danny.  Neither of them are absolutely perfect or horribly broken people.  They are down to earth, with normal insecurities and deal with them in a normal way, which allows you to relate to them on a personal level.  Perhaps this is why I feel like I know them in real life?  The secondary characters of Jen and Max really enhance the story.  Their characters support Liv and Danny in everything they do.  They show us what unconditional friendship really is."Happy Birthday, baby."I've never cried over purple Converse before, but I did.  I bawled like a damn baby over those shoes because they symbolized just how perfect Danny and Liv are for each other.  They are not just in love, they are true soul mates.  Just thinking about them brings such happy tears and makes my heart feel good.  The fact that Danny and Liv met at such a tender age of 6, allowed Danny and Liv to bury themselves into each other souls.  Being separated for 12 years allowed them to grow into the adults they needed to be to be able to handle the love they carried for each other.  Still Human is a story about heartache, unwavering friendship, and unconditional love.  It's more than just a book.  It's a beautiful story that has forever buried itself deep into my heart."I'm not afraid anymore."Still Human is a solid 5 star read that will leave you begging Kerry for more.
