Save Me is the continuation of Josh and Bree's story. It picks up not long after the couple have suffered a horrible, devastating loss. Both are attempting to deal with it in their own ways. Bree is trying to do it the healthy way; Josh isn't. He is drowning his sorrows in the bottom of a bottle which is not helping his relationship with Bree at all. In fact, it appears that it is going to tear them apart forever.This isn't an easy love story to read in the least. In fact, it was hard to read at times. I just loved Josh in the first book, and there were times I hated him in this one. But, in Ella's capable hands, she turns a book of devastating loss into a beautiful book about healing. The road to happiness for these two will be long, painful, and arduous. The pacing of the book was perfect. It wasn't a quick fix, and it was very realistic. Josh and Bree had to deal with their own painful pasts in addition to their loss in order to even attempt to find their way back to each other. I loved the support system they had to help them too. Again, very realistic. You have to have a good support system to fight your demons and live a healthy life.I cannot say how much I loved this book. It deals with some very real issues, and it is my wish that someone who is dealing with the same issues can find some hope and courage in this book and that it could help make a difference in their lives.It has been an awesome experience to see how much Ella has grown as a writer. She just keeps getting better with every book she writes!
