When I came across this book I seen that this was this author's debut and I wanted to give her a chance. From the very beginning I was pulled into the book. I loved the history between Chris and Tessie. The background into their friendship and then their relationship as a couple was very well written. I loved how their were finally finding happiness until tragedy strikes! That really pulled at my heart strings. My girl Tessie really went through emotionally for someone so young. It broke my heart to read it and I became so engrossed with her at that moment. I loved how the author over time developed Tessie' s character and we watched her blossom into a mature woman. Now and the story winds down we are thrown a twist that I really didn't see coming! Awesome twist Shemeka! The only problem that I have with this story is the way it ended. It's incomplete! Literally!! The ending in my opinion was very one-sided and didn't do the title of "Everlasting Love" justice. I think that Tessie really got dealt a bad hand. This ending had me in my mind coming up with an alternate ending that I felt the story deserved.With that being said it all in all was a decent sweet read, that really didn't give the readers the ending we wanted, or maybe I wanted! I would definitely read more from this young author and I do recommend this book, to see what the other readers think mainly about that ending!
