First I have to confess and say that I have not read the first two books in this series: Ten Days of Perfect and Reckless Abandon. I found out too late that it was better to read this series in order. That being said... I do not regret anything because I loved this book! It was a beautiful, beautiful story.No spoilers here. I wish that if you read this series you enjoy every moment as it comes in each book by hopefully reading the series in order. ;)I found this story to be about healing. Beautiful, heartbreaking, deep healing. Regan had his heart broken by tragedy and doesn't think he could love again. Georgia feels that her future has been written for hear already and that love could never be part of it. As they get to know each other, Regan opens up to Georgia and finds hope in her and himself once again. But it's harder for Georgia to come around because she carries big secrets and she doesn't trust easily.They slowly but eventually get to a point where they feel they can move on from the past and break the walls that used to hold them back. That's when the healing it's almost over and love carries them through the end and bringing peace, more hope, and a type of happiness they never thought possible.I loved Andrea's writing and how deep she goes on describing the characters feelings and pains. It was like Regan and Georgia's souls were complete open books for me to appreciate and truly understand. Moreover, the characters felt so human and I loved that; it made the story so real and touching.For this being my first time meeting Regan (since I haven't read the previous books) I really fell hard for him. Talk about a sweetheart of a man, so in touch with his emotions, not afraid to show vulnerability, and strong enough to overcome one of the biggest adversities in life. I loved him from beginning to end and I cheered for his happiness so much because he absolutely deserved it.I found Georgia to be an intriguing character. At the beginning it was hard to figure her out because she was so closed off and yet so out there in order to keep appearances. That's why I never expected the heaviness of her struggles. She really had it tough and as her secrets unfolded I got to understand and love her too.My favorite, favorite part of the book was the ending. And not just because of the "happily ever after" but because of the beautiful, unique, and really meaningful revelations that you get at the end. It was like getting the final piece of the puzzle which made the whole story more amazing than I ever expected.Again this was a beautiful read and introduction (for me) to this series. I really look forward to reading the two previous books and the other two that follow this one! ♥
