I received an ARC for an honest review. ***SOME SPOILERS***I tore up the With You Trilogy, and Karl and Elise were my favorite background characters so I waited anxiously to read about their history. First let me say what I love most about RJ Sable's books is that while they are truly love stories its also about trust, healing, and family. The Carter family holds a place in my heart for many reasons, the bond and love that each sibling has for each other is so strong and at times there is definitely misunderstandings about their treatment of each other, as they have become adults and matured the family has slowly healed from past hurts. After reading the With You Trilogy from Jamie-Lea's POV I have to say that I had some issues with her older brothers, but reading from Elise's POV I see things differently. Not only about all of Jamie's brothers, but mostly of Karl and Ian. These boys went from teenagers to men overnight, their support system is comforting but these two stepped up for their family.So for this particular book, let me just say WOW. RJ Sable has more than exceeded anything that I ever expected with her story of Elise and Karl. I think I fell in love with Karl, his patience with Elise is just intoxicating and Elise just made me want to be a stronger person. The bond that these two shared since they were six transcended sexual abuse, death, and time; while these types of things can and have torn people apart it only made Karl and Elise's bond stronger. I can't wait for the next book in this series.And since this is my opportunity to give my opinion (lol), and I don't know what the plans are for the rest of the Carter family I have ask please at least one book for the others. I am asking particularly for Ian and Matt, those two just need somebody to break down those walls
