After surviving a plane crash, I was lucky to be alive. It was a harsh truth, but one that changed my perspective on how fragile life could be.
So when a fellow survivor caught my eye, I owed it to myself to take a chance and follow my heart.
Bowen Michaels was guarded and broody, but I saw through his well-formed armor. Much like me, he was broken and lost, but together we found our way through the darkness.
For a brief moment, wrapped in his arms, it felt like maybe he was right about fate and we’d been destined to find each other all along.
But when buried secrets of the past erupt, igniting us both, it was hard to believe we’d been fated for anything other than failure.
The world gave me everything.
And then it took it all away.
"Who knew that utter joy and the darkest sorrow could exist in the same moment?"
Sooo, I guess - what? I just sit and wait another month? Twiddle my fingers? Oh dear, this is going to be a long month. A very painful, long month.

To be honest, I don’t know whether I’m sad, mad, or ready to start punching someone!!! What a messed up ending. My heart can only be pulled in so many directions!! OMGosh, seriously....I'm flexing my fingers, crackin' knuckles - because I am more antsy after this cliffhanger than I was after the first one.
Watching Bowen and Remi maneuver through this new reality they find themselves in was both painful and intriguing to watch unfold. Bowen’s determination is beyond compare. His love for her? His deep, undeniable love for her is no match for any truths they don't see coming and I feel like he's going to be the rock she so desperately will need. He’s determined and resolute. He knows what he wants, and he’ll move Heaven and Hell to get there. I simultaneously felt bad and loved him even more with every page I turned. He’s an amazing man. He really, truly is.
I'm sad because the wait is going to be really tough - that's no lie. I'm wholly invested in their story and really want everything to work out. I sit squarely on the lap of Bowen (with a smile?) that FATE is an all knowing miracle and I feel just as he does about it, so this one is such an easy read to follow with my heart and soul.
I'm mad because that twist wasn't my favorite - but it certainly gave me some hindsight into some of the things said and done over these last few books, but it kind of snuck up on me too - and I liked that part a lot. But that ending made it that much more difficult to tell myself to hurry up and wait. Because now I want to punch someone seriously hard. HARD.
Remi is so damn strong, but I cannot honestly put myself in her shoes because what a helluva way to have your world implode. If you've already read book one - you will know the turmoil she's going through in this book, and that's not anything easy to figure out on a good day, let alone a bad day. If you haven't, you might be saving yourself some heartache! HAHAHA! I am seriously sitting here with my head swirling with possibilities and wondering how Bowen is going to handle this all. INVESTED, I TELL YA!!!
But I will end with this...I am literally hanging off the proverbial cliff.

The world owes you nothing.
It took losing the woman I loved and facing the paralyzing task of moving on without her for me to truly understand that.
Consumed by regret and razor-sharp memories, I’d resigned myself to a life of loneliness until a survivor from the same plane crash that took my fiancée stormed into my life.
Remi Grey was chaos and sunshine, fire and freedom. With her in my arms, I began to believe that fate had other plans for me.
But as secrets of the past exploded around us, it seemed the only thing fated about our relationship was that I had been destined to lose her from the start.
The world owes you nothing. But for Remi, I would risk it all. No matter the cost.

OMG!! I don't know whether to punch somebody for you,comfort you, hold your hand while waiting for the next book, blame Aly..... because I know I couldn't be able to survive the cliffies. But know that I love your review. I love how you made me excited on a trilogy that I know will rip my heart apart. But I know too that you will be with me.
ReplyDeleteYou know how I feel about cliffhangers. To have both books one AND two end with them means that I definitely HAVE to wait until the final book comes out to read the trilogy. I'm not good with the waiting game. But thanks to you, I totally want to read this series.
