Amber runs away from her family for the day. She needs some time alone. She needs to think.Amber heads to the beach - where she feels safe. Her life is about to be ripped apart. There's nothing she can do to stop it.
All she wants is a one day of fun before tomorrow begins.
Then she meets Cade. He also has a secret. They spend the day together as they both hide from the real world. Cade and Amber play on the beach, fly a kite, build on bonfire, and eat an amazing dinner. They feel an instant connection.
Was it fate that brought them together to do what they have to do?
My Thoughts: I love Lisa Schroeder's verse novels. They're quick reads, but fill of emotion and always make me think. I love the way this novel unfolded - with secrets and memories from the past creeping into the future. I loved how the relationship developed between Cade and Amber. Another amazing read.
Cover Thoughts: Interesting - I love the way you can see her eyes through the grass.

I downloaded a sample on my Kindle. It was just so beautifully written! I can't wait to get the whole book. But I'm trying to decide whether to get it on Kindle or in hard copy (so tht my niece can read it).
ReplyDeleteI like that about the cover, too.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great book! I just finished and reviewed it. I haven't found any other books written in verse as great as Lisa's.
