Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars
My heart broke for Faith and what she went through. And while I at first didn’t like Will, I began to see him in a different light. He was desperately trying to hold his family together (and no small feat, with three children) when his wife had no memory of the life they shared. There is a rollercoaster of emotions in this book, Will and Faith’s struggle is raw and painful, as they both realize how beautiful and fragile love is. Will was a rock, a devoted husband and father fighting a losing battle at times, but refused to give up.
