| Description from Publisher: | ||||
| Beckett,
If you’re reading this, well, you know the last-letter drill. You made it. I didn’t. Get off the guilt train, because I know if there was any chance you could have saved me, you would have. I need one thing from you: get out of the army and get to Telluride. My little sister Ella’s raising the twins alone. She’s too independent and won’t accept help easily, but she has lost our grandmother, our parents, and now me. It’s too much for anyone to endure. It’s not fair. And here’s the kicker: there’s something else you don’t know that’s tearing her family apart. She’s going to need help. So if I’m gone, that means I can’t be there for Ella. I can’t help them through this. But you can. So I’m begging you, as my best friend, go take care of my sister, my family. Please don’t make her go through it alone. Ryan | ||||

Oh my god. I cried. Like, tears. I kept thinking it wouldn't happen, couldn't. But it did. And I couldn't stop reading but I wanted to. Thankfully, both of my babies are next to me to hug and be glad they are alive and well (This isn't -really- a spoiler. It isn't what you might think!) I had started this expecting a romance, and will start that this is only just barely a romance. It was about a family dealing with one tragedy after another, being broken and then sewn back together, but not impeccably. It -was- a romance in that it is about a single mother and a man who loves her. To be perfectly honest, I didn't really care for Ella, the female protagonist, but I loved Beckett (the male lead), and the kids. The bond there was so heartwarming and heartbreaking. I can't go into more without spoilers, but you will cry reading this one. | ||||
