Damn. That’s all I can say after staying up till almost 3:30am to finish this book.
“I’ll love you forever, even when I can’t.” That statement alone truly encapsulates the emotions and depth of this book. Truly at the height of her abilities, Hoover delivers a passionate and powerful story of Auburn, the girl who loses the love of her life so young, only to be thrown into more strife when her relationship with her son is called into question. And then there’s Owen Gentry, the dashing young artist who can’t seem to outrun his past, and leads a life filled with darkness.
A chance encounter sparked by a “help wanted” signed on his studio leads to a whirlwind of change neither of them could have seen coming; and changes both of their lives in the most unexpected ways.
