Caulder and Kel’s relationship was amazing through this book , They hit it off right from the start and became the best of friends . which was awesome for both of them . They had me laughing throughout the whole book at little things they said and did .
This is a story of Love , heartache, death, and Life . This is a must read for everyone . it brought tears to my eyes more then once . but then also brought tears of Joy to my eyes in the end . This is a HEA story and it is well worth the read .
“So you keep your ocean, I'll take the Lake.”
