Wow – seriously – wow. Where to even start with this one. Anyone whose read anything by J.A. Redmerski knows what a phenomenal writer she is – but this book? Kick to the GUT! Bray and Elias’s story is …. just wow. Just when you think you’ve got things figured out? BAM!Bray’s story is a sad one…. you get the feeling there is something going on underneath it all – the acting out, her relationship with her parents and everything as a whole affecting her relationship with Elias. They’re best friends, but you know deep down they both feel something more…. even when they were very, very young. It’s not everyday you meet your soul mate when they’re 8 years old.Elias stands by her throughout everything – middle school, high school, the ups and downs she has with her parents and even when they try to take their relationship to the next level sexually and it doesn’t quite take off…. yet.I don’t want to go into too much detail as to spoil things for those who haven’t read it – but there is REAL suspense throughout this story – it’s intense, sad and exciting. And a lot of surprises popping up made me love the story even more….. and you’ll understand when you read it.Bray’s story – in it’s own is real – tragic and emotional. She’s suffering and Elias can’t do much but stand by her throughout all of it and try to help her. Try to be her rock and show her that she’s loved no matter what. She doesn’t have to be perfect for him – because he’s loved her through it all – the good, bad, ugly and terrifying relationship they’ve forged is one that will not leave you anytime soon.
