One of the saddest words in the English language may be “if” because it’s two little letters that when put together with the right words before or after can only mean regret. It’s only with the gift of hindsight we are given the opportunity to see how unattainable the past is and how difficult, if n...
Review completed February 25, 2014. Probably the best three-star book I've ever read. I loved it. And I hated it.As much as I want to marginalize the bad to let the beauty shine in all its brilliance, I just can't do that. It wouldn't be fair because I want to stay true to myself. My rating simply r...

This was such a beautifully written, moving book. It's hard to discuss without being spoilery, but if you have read the blurb you know the basics of the story. Kerry and Erik (aka Hash) have been a couple and business partners for several years before one night changes everything.The story that fo...
NOTE SPOILERS SPOILERS GALLORE.So this book came highly recommended from several friends of mine and let me just be upfront, I get why they loved the book, I really do. The writing is beautiful, in places breathtaking - the setting truly comes alive. I loved the *words* in this book, just not the pl...
It took me the best part of a week to digest this book. It had me hard in its grip from the get-go, and it just NEVER let go. I'm still on a high from it, and can't seem to start a new book, because I still think about these characters daily. Uncanny. I'm still reeling with all the emotions. I bough...
3.5 stars. Gorgeous writing! Simply beautiful. I won't try and put all my thoughts into words because this review says everything I want to say much more coherently, particularly my opinion of Kerry and his relationship with Erik.
5 Stars - KAPOW!The story starts in South Africa with Hash and his Irish lover, Kerry, having been together for 3 years, running their Shark Dive Tours as business partners, and employing Kerry’s older sister Kelly. They are known as the Irish Twins, despite the 10 month age difference. Kelly and Ha...

Because of Kerry.This book made my bruised heart jolt against my chest like a scared bird crashing into a cold window pane. Because of Erik.This book made my ba...
