Synopsis
College senior Kate Camden has learned to adapt - to her last
year of school, to the promise of motherhood, to the fact that she’s doing it
all alone. But just when she’s learned to adjust, heartache threatens to break
her apart.
Pro hockey player Jason “Ryke” Ryker has it all: adoring fans, a
promising career, and a beautiful wife. But when his seemingly perfect life is
shaken by tragedy, he’s left questioning whether having it all is ever more
than an illusion.
When circumstance brings Kate and Ryke together, they discover
they don’t have to hurt alone. Bound by a grief that haunts them both, they
must rely on one another to survive heartbreak. But that grief is more powerful
than they realize, and the tie that binds them together may ultimately tear them
apart.
Review:
From the first page, I was hooked on this story and the visceral feeling of love, dashed expectations and loss. Kate is a character that could easily be many of us. Who hasn't fallen into bed with someone and later felt like- uh oh... that could have been a mistake. It doesn't matter what the reason was. The regret is still like a bubbling cancer that eats at you. I can't imagine if that reason was a pregnancy. Wow. Kate's story ate at my insides. Grief is the same whether someone dies or just doesn't want to know you anymore. It damn well hurts. Kate's story shows you every vulnerable step and I couldn't put it down, even when I was supposed to be working on my own WIP. I am still reading (had to write this...lol) and loving every second of it. Will post the final review when I can breathe after the 15th and my manuscript is done, but wow...this author can write. My heart already has some bruises from where she has squeezed.
