When everything falls apart, love remains . . .
THE EDGE OF ALWAYS
Camryn Bennett has never been happier. Five months after meeting on a Greyhound bus, she and her soul mate Andrew Parrish are engaged—and a wedding isn’t the only special event in their future. Nervous but excited, Camryn can’t wait to begin the rest of her life with Andrew – a man she knows in her heart will love her always. They have so much to look forward to—until tragedy blindsides them.
Andrew doesn’t understand how this could happen to them. He’s trying to move on, and thought Camryn was doing the same. But when Andrew discovers Camryn is secretly harboring a mountain of pain and attempting to numb it in damaging ways, there is nothing he won’t do to bring her back to life. Determined to prove that their love can survive anything, Andrew decides to take Camryn on a new journey filled with hope and passion. If only he can convince her to come along for the ride…
{4 stars}
Not as an emotional of a ride for me this time around. Andrew and Camryn are starting their life "together" after some really harsh events in their lives. Together and separate they have both been thru a lot. But life is not ready to just let them "be" yet. After another tragedy, Andrew decides that the way to get back their life is to hit the road again, where they were happiest. But what I discovered in the first book about coming home, isn't really true, it's not a place. Home is where your heart is, It's where you feel the most loved, cherished, and safe. And sometimes that just so happens to be in the arms of the one you love. Fighting the "norm", Andrew and Camryn figure out what makes them the most happy. And sitting still isn't it, but trying to recreate their original journey isn't it either. So they set out on a journey yet undiscovered by them. They do eventually come full circle, and land in a much better place then the last time they stopped. But even though they have to take a break from their wandering, they do it for the right reasons this time.
I didn't cry this time, but I felt the emotions just as strongly. Their story really makes you think about what makes you happy, and not settling for anything less. I have found myself wanting to run away and just keep going much like Andrew and Camryn do, if it was only as easy as it is in a book.....
