Review:
I don’t know what to label this book. It’s mostly a contemporary romance. However, there are metaphysical aspects to it that could place it under the paranormal category. I loved Luna. She was such a sweet person, just starting out on life away from home, having her first experiences in college. But, she was haunted nightly by reoccurring nightmares. And those nightmares got more concentrated, to the point where the woman in her nightmares haunted her daily life. The choice she made near the end … I think I would have done the same thing. She didn’t know who she was anymore, and anyone in her situation would question the same things. I felt for Clay, I really did. His past was so heartbreaking. He had a true love, one for the ages, but she fell into a downward spiral of depression and couldn’t see her way out of it. Honestly, I didn’t understand where a lot of her anger toward Clay came from. Regardless, back to Clay, a lot of what he did in the story made me not like him very much. He was hot and cold, running more cold than anything. When everything comes together in the end, the overall story is really beautiful. Second chances, true love, the afterlife, fixing your mistakes and redeeming yourself. It’s an amazing idea that I know I hope is true.
