I knew when I first got this, it would be a hard one to read. The subject matter is far from fluffy bunnies and rainbows. It's a very real and very serious subject. A subject I can relate to. I've read other books or seen made for TV movies on the subject and I think this is one of the better stori...
This was another book that has been receiving so many positive, glowing reviews, one almost has to approach reading it with a healthy amount of skepticism. For me, the skepticism was gone just a few pages into the book and I was swept into the story without ever looking back. I read this book in one...
I had a very difficult time getting into this book. I don't think the subject matter was really the problem. I think it started off with the writing style.

Then she met Guy. Ohhhh Guy! He is so dreamy! I love him. I love how he sticks with Willow and helped her thru ...

Willow was someone who put up walls of protection, not wanting anyone to be let in, uti...
I gave this story five stars. I did not do this because I thought it was the best book ever written.It wasn't the best one I've read either.But you see...I fell in love with the story.
