WOW

I've waited a couple of days since finishing this book to write a review. I wasn't sure I was going to write one, but two days later I'm still thinking about it.

This author has taken a very taboo subject and turned it into a beautiful, although tragic, love story. As with many others I'm sure, it was very hard at first for me to look beyond the brother / sister factor. When I was able to though, I fell in love also. Lochan and Maya were genuinely innocent characters. They didn't want to feel the way they did; they fought it every step of the way. But in the end there was no way around the feelings they had for one another.

I also really came to care about Willa, Tiffin, and Kit. I just adored them, and the family unit that Lochan and Maya put together for them. Those three kids were, in every way that mattered, Lochan and Mayas children.

As sensitive as the subject matter may be, it made me open my eyes to ALL kinds of love. I had lots of hopes for Maya and Lochan. I mean, they were more in love than most couples I know in real life, and they were hurting no one. So yeah...I had hopes and dreams for their future.

Well...the book ended and I was left heartbroken. But...I FELT more while reading this book than most anything else I have ever read.

This book is Amazing. This author is Brilliant.
