Nikki's Review
What can I say? This story is an emotional rollercoaster that broke the Ice Queen! Yes you heard correctly. It.Made.Me.Cry. okay, there, I said it.
I agreed to read this book, because I read the blurb and was intrigued. The blurb itself outlines the story without giving away the main points so this is not something I am going to do.
What I will do is tell you how beautifully written and DEEP this story is. You get to know the main characters Alan and Sam. Casey paints the picture of their friendship starting when they were just 5 years old and progress up to the present day. It does alternate from past to present and once you settle into the style, it flows beautifully. I enjoyed their journey even if it was full of angst and heartbreak. It felt real, it could be real. They acted and reacted like real people would in the situations they found themselves in and I think this is what cracked me eventually. The fact that this could actually happen to anyone. My heart ached for everything Alan went through, he struggled with the fact that he might not get to live the life he had planned with the woman he loves. And right up until the very end I couldn't call it. I had no idea the way it was going to go and that was just one this I loved about this book. I couldn't predict it. It was unexpected in every way.
Don't think that it was all drama and sadness. Casey sure put some really super hot moments in there too. Their first kiss, Oh man!
And humour, plenty of humour. I really, really liked Sam's attitude. She is the kinda girl I would get on with. She is loyal, honest and just a perfect fit for Alan. They knew every inch of each other, body and mind and it just re-enforces my belief that everyone has a soul mate. The strength and depth of their love proves that anything is possible when you believe in LOVE!
'My heart once again goes to her and she owns it completely. It beats when she tells it to, stops when she leaves. It breaks at her word and her touch repairs it. Her warmth sustains me and her smile gives me wings. She has me, body and soul. She has always held my heart, now she owns it.'
Written in the Male POV, it is uniquely refreshing and just what I was after. It not only lived up to my expectations but exceeded them. It's deep, emotional and his style is different from anything else I have read. I can't wait to see what Casey writes next.
4.5 Ice Queen melting STARS !!!!
