My Review

Very well written, poignant story about a neurosurgeon having to make an extremely difficult decision on saving the life of his unborn child after his wife is declared brain dead. It's been awhile since I've read a book that's had such a heartfelt effect on me. It made me really sit down and think about what if this happened to me? Priscille you made my heart ache, you made me laugh and cry. This book felt honest and true and that's what I love about it and this book will stay with me forever. I wish I could give it 10 stars! Thank you so very much.

About the Book
Falling in love with Gabe Anderson was as easy as breathing. Fighting my feelings for my brother’s best friend was agonizingly hard. I never imagined giving in to my desire for him would cause such a destructive ripple effect. That kiss was my grasp at a lifeline—something, anything to hold me steady in my crumbling life. Now, I have to suffer with the fallout while trying to convince him it’s all worth the consequences.
Guilt overwhelms me—over what I’ve done, the lives I’ve taken, and more than anything, over my feelings for Skye Hawke. Craving my best friend’s little sister is insanely self-destructive. It never should have happened, but since the moment she kissed me, I haven’t been able to get her out of my mind. If I take what I want, I risk losing everything. If I don’t, I’ll lose her and a piece of myself. The raging storm threatening to rain down on the city is nothing compared to the one that will come from my decision.
Love can be torture, but sometimes, love is the only thing that can save you.
