I have been eagerly awaiting the release of "Sam's Story: Book Three" and I have to say that now that I have read it that eager waiting was more than worth it. Amy D. Crusan-Kramer draws readers back into Sam's life again as she finds herself in a new place, in a new tenuous relationship and floundering in the absence of the friends she had to leave behind. The story is emotional, engaging, heartwrenching and heartwarming at the same time. Ms. Crusan-Kramer has a clear talent for writing that shines through with each addition to the Skylar Trilogy and this final book is no exception... reforging the link between the reader and Sam as she struggles to regain her sense of identity, her courage to love and the boundless renewal found in the affection of children, friends and someone who truly loves and understands you in a way no others have.The novel is well written with a lush and engaging tone, never faltering in keeping the writing fresh and vivid throughout this final tale. I finished the book feeling as if I had truly gone right alongside Sam on her journey from young girl to world-weary woman, feeling her heartache, pain, hope, happiness and love right along with her. Overall, this was beautifully compelling and wonderfully satisfying from start to finish.
