Some people are blessed to find that one certain person who
completes them.
Wrynn’s yesterdays were what others only dream of having. She and
Tripp were the best of friends before they even thought about love. They had
the fairy tale life where ‘like’ turns into ‘love’, and ‘love’ becomes ‘happily
ever after’.
What happens when life conspires against you, and snatches your
soul mate from your arms?
…only her forever love ended much too soon.
Broken beyond her own ability to repair, Wrynn boxes up her grief
and attempts to raise her three girls the best she can on her own. As time
slowly passes, Wrynn relives her life with Tripp while struggling most days to
get out of bed. She is reminded of him at every turn.
How do you set your grief and anguish aside? How do you pick up the
shattered pieces, put those pieces back together again, and try to move on?
Wrynn tries to find the joy in life every single day through her
daughters, family, and friends. Her twin brother Liam has dedicated himself to
helping Wrynn put her life back together after losing his own love. On the
other hand, her mother-in-law lives to torment her at every turn. Wrynn can’t
even find a chance to breathe, much less a desire to somehow search for her
tomorrow.
From The Mind Of Mo
I really enjoyed this sweet and all-encompassing love story. Tripp and Wrynn have been inseparable since childhood, and their friendship developed into an enduring love. This story focuses on Wrynn’s life after losing her great love, and her struggle to raise her three daughters alone.
Kathryn makes sure that we get the depth of their love, even though the story takes place after Tripp is gone. She weaves this story between the present and the past, skillfully telling this epic tale of friendship and love. From the time they meet on a tire swing, to their blossoming love in school, to their marriage and Tripp’s military career, I was truly immersed in their story.
Every day is a struggle for Wrynn once she loses Tripp, and dealing with the mother-in-law from Hell doesn’t help matters much. Thankfully, her twin brother Liam has moved into Wrynn’s home, and he’s a great source of support for her family. Even so, she’s barely coping, and her grief is made all the more real for the reader by going back in time and reliving important milestones in their love story.
Tripp is definitely one of the sweetest, most loving Heroes I’ve read in quite some time. His love for Wrynn was so powerful, so absolute, it was almost a tangible thing. I can’t lie, I was a little angry that he was robbed of a long and happy life with Wrynn and their girls. It was so unfair!
The ending had me so drawn in, I actually ended up finishing this book in my car while in a parking lot! The only criticism I would have about this book would be that I would have liked the ending to be fleshed out a little but. Kathryn wrapped it up nicely, but I’m greedy and I wanted more!
Kathryn has said that we’ll be getting Liam’s story in the future, which is very exciting to me, as there were definitely some unanswered questions for him in this book! All in all, I’d have to say that this was a wonderful novel from a debut author, and I’m truly glad I got the chance to read it.

If you are reading this, I think you should know that “About me” sounds so very pretentious to me. I guess that is what I am supposed to write about, so here it goes!sitting in her rocking chair on the front porch!
Jeremiah 29:11 very close to her heart and believes it with every fiber of her being. “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
