Review- 5 Stars
This book! How do I even begin! This books is
amazing! It broke my heart, made me laugh, and had me fanning myself from the
heat. This story is beautifully written and so well plotted. They had me
guessing, a lot. I’d think I had it all figured out, then I’d think, oh maybe
not. This was a vicious cycle! One of the things I love about Riley Mackenzie’s
books is the way they present the medical information. They explain it in a way
that I understand and to bring further awareness to the issues, they have more
information in the back of the book. It’s pretty awesome. And, let me just
swoon for a sec, the ending…oh, the ending… *sigh*
This book is a complete standalone, however Guy is a
prominent character in Riley’s Mackenzie’s first novel, Beautifully Awake (OMG
5 fan-freaking-tastic stars for that one too). It was fun to see the drop in by
one of the other characters too. At the end of their first book, I wanted Guy
to have his own story, so I was stoked to finally get it! He’s adorable and fun
in that book…but in this one, they added smoking hot, a fabulous father, and,
as if that wasn’t enough to make you swoon all day long, has a dirty mouth in
the bedroom. Just writing this review makes me want to go back and start all
over from the beginning again.
Guy has been handed a crap lot in life, it doesn’t
get any worse than watching your child suffer. He doesn’t regret giving up his
dreams for his children, they are his whole world. But, that doesn’t stop him
from wishing things had been different. Things have been hard and he’s had to
make sacrifices and concessions, all because of someone else’s selfish actions.
With all of this weighing on him, it’s easy to see why he closed off his heart.
And yet, it doesn’t take long after meeting Jules for him to open himself back
up again and I loved that. He’s skeptical but he doesn’t fight the reality and refuse
to see how special she is once his misconceptions are blown away. Guy has a
huge heart and he isn’t able to stop himself from sharing it with Jules,
despite the hurt knowing that she is still holding up walls between them.
Jules has had her heart shattered into pieces and
she is positive that it is irreparable. On the outside, she is happy, loving, and
content with her life. But the reality is that she s coasting through life,
simply being, not living. Then Guy and his sweet, sweet babies burst into her
life and she isn’t able to stop the influx of emotion they bring with them. Now
she is caught, wanting to open her heart to them, but afraid that if she does,
the fragile stitches holding the last vestiges will disappear and she’ll never
survive it. Yet, there is no way to keep them out, they were made for each
other.
I had several scenarios in my head that were
possibilities for the ending, I guessed correctly with one of them, but I didn’t
know which of the 5 or so options was right, until it was revealed. But, unless
you carry ridiculous, completely useless knowledge in your head from certain
movies, I think you’ll be shocked.
I can’t recommend this author duo enough. I have
loved each of their books and Abruption is definitely high up on my re-read
list. I’ll be harassing them frequently to put out a new book as soon as
possible!
This is definitely a must read! 5 Huge stars!
