His favorite quote:

She was my sunshine, I was her moonlight, and for the rest of our lives we'll never forget dancing in the rain.


Why this book?

  • Because the author tackles hard and powerful subjects.

    There is the subject of mourning which is at the center of the story.

    Approached in different ways through the heroes and their loved ones.

    There is also the guilt, but also the reconstruction after this kind of ordeal.

    She tells us about the different healing phases and the difficulties we may encounter.

  • Because the author has the gift of plunging us into the heart of the emotions

    of her protagonists.

    They are always real and touching.

    We really feel what they can feel, no matter if the emotion is positive or negative.

  • Because the author's pen is unique,

    she always tackles complex subjects, often mourning and suffering.

    She knows how to break hearts, but she also knows how to fix them and restore smiles and hope.

  • Because even if the central subject of this book is mourning,

    it is approached gently.

    The author has balanced things perfectly to make us go from tears to laughter and vice versa.

  • Because this live makes you smile.

    The author conveys magnificent messages through a very poetic pen.

    His message is beautiful, it is filled with love, friendship and solidarity.

    It gives us hope and the desire to dance in the rain with those we love.


The essentials in 2 minutes

The plot.

 Kennedy deals with her anxiety attacks after an accident where she lost her daughter and her parents.

She feels responsible, her execrable husband overwhelms her.

She moves out and grows closer to Jax, the small town villain.

She will discover that finally, she already knows him.

Characters.

 Both Jax and Kennedy have tragically lost loved ones.

They carry the weight of guilt on their shoulders.

They try to face their demons.

She is sunny, he is cold and dark.

They are characters in pain, who will find each other and help each other.

Places.

 A small town in the southern United States, much like Wisteria Lane in

Desperate Housewives

.

Everyone knows each other, the neighbors are intrusive and want to know everything about everything.

The weather is often stormy, which will be annoying for the heroine.

The time.

 Current.

The author.

 A graduate in literature and theater from Carroll University, Brittainy C. Cherry is the author of contemporary romances.

His book

The Elements, Volume 1: The Air He Breathes

This book was read with

 many emotions, both good and bad.

I took my time and savored this poetic pen.
