From the team behind #1 New York Times
bestseller Five Feet Apart comes a gripping new romance that asks: Can you find
true love after losing everything?
Kyle and Kimberly have been the perfect couple all
through high school, but when Kimberly breaks up with him on the night of their
graduation party, Kyle’s entire world upends—literally. Their car crashes and
when he awakes, he has a brain injury. Kimberly is dead. And no one in his life
could possibly understand.
Until Marley. Marley is suffering from her own loss, a loss she thinks was her fault. And when their paths cross, Kyle sees in her all the unspoken things he’s feeling.
As Kyle and Marley work to heal each other’s wounds, their feelings for each other grow stronger. But Kyle can’t shake the sense that he’s headed for another crashing moment that will blow up his life as soon as he’s started to put it back together.
And he’s right.

Have you ever had a book that you were so inside the story, so with the characters, so tethered to every word that was uttered, every feeling conveyed, every moment captured...that you were simply wrecked by book's end? I mean like in tears, sighing with relief or acceptance, and quite honestly needing a few moments at the very least before you could even think about wrangling your thoughts into something coherent, or ,goodness forbid, reading something else? Yeah, that's me with this book.
I will admit to having WATCHED their previous collaboration, Five Feet Apart, and having a very similar reaction to the film...but I never got around to reading the book. I bought it with every intent of diving in, but with my reading schedule being a little booked at times, I haven't had the chance. I totally regret not having read it at this moment because if it's half as good as this story, I'm totally missing out!
Kyle and Kimberly were a couple for as long as anyone could remember, which is especially long in today's world where some folks trade significant others like flavors of the week...but sometimes that familiarity, sometimes that constant togetherness, can make it hard for them to see themselves anymore. The bomb drop on graduation night was epic...but the fallout would last SO much longer and affect so many lives in ways no one could possible imagine. Throughout the ordeal, we get to know Kyle like never before, Kimberly more in depth, Sam beneath his jock-ish bravado, and Marley to the very core of her soul. All those connections, all those life links are going to come into play at different times throughout the story, and no matter how insignificant they may seem in the moment, their importance is a matter of sanity or downward spiraling, looking back constantly or moving forward...quite literally life or death.
I can't say enough and yet I don't want to spoil it for you. You deserve to experience it all for the first time too...untainted, uncertain, and yet fully involved. So if this sounds like a story you may like, or perhaps you enjoyed the other book, make haste to clear your calendar for a read of this remarkable release. It'll certainly remind you of the important things in life, and to treat each day like the present it is.
