Summary:
William has spent six years running from his past and last eight months trying to rid his mind of the dreams that increasingly haunt his nights. Trapped in a world of false ambitions and feigned affections, William knows he’s reached a breaking point and something’s going to give.
Maggie had lived her entire life without hope until one man showed her what it meant to be loved. He’d been her light in a lifetime of darkness. Six years ago, that darkness stole him away. Without him, she’s surrendered herself to an existence she doesn’t know how to escape.
When the family William left behind is struck by tragedy, he is called back to the one place he’s sworn to never return to again.
In a moment that will change his life forever, William comes face to face with the girl who, with one look, captured his heart. He is unable to ignore the buried desires and the hope for the future they’d once believed they’d have.
Now William is ready to fight to take back what had been stolen from him six years before.But he never imagined what that fight might cost him.
My Review:
This was okay! I feel kinda weird about this book though, because it contained abuse and I felt a bit uncomfortable reading it.
I don't know, but I don't really find it realistic. Someone who's had a relationship with someone and then not seeing them after 6 years and almost immediately they're all, blah. Nuhuh. That doesn't really happen in real life does it?
But I do think that William and Maggie are good together.
Sorry that this post is small, but I don't have much to say. I've been in a kinda funk these past weeks too. So sorry in advance!
Overall, this book was okay! It might be better for older people to read it, and not younger kids. 3 Stars.
